Keynote panel: Data centres as an enabler of grid stability amidst the green transition

06 Mar 2025
Conference Room
Data centres as responsible grid citizens, Developing the relationship between grid operators and data centres
Increasing renewables penetration on European grids presents significant challenges to gridcos, requiring grid balancing solutions. Often with significant on-site generation and storage facilities, data centres have a potential role in supporting grids through the energy transition, yet the involvement to date of data centres in providing grid balancing solutions has been limited. This panel explores how grids view grid balancing solutions and where requirements are greatest, how data centres can play a role without compromising resiliency of their own facilities, TCO calculations versus the revenue opportunity for data centres and how they can be further motivated to participate in grid balancing offerings.
