Improved collaboration between data centres and gridcos

Historically relationships between gridcos and data centre operators have been purely transactional, yet more strategic dialogue can help address the challenges faced by both sides of the table. Bringing together European TSOs, DSOs and the data centre industry, we discuss the way forward on key issues such as load forecasting, transmission planning, interconnection challenges, grid balancing and reliability and behind the meter deployments. Put in place the right channels for cooperation going forward and identify synergies between the two sectors.

Urgent action required to meet tomorrow’s GenAI power requirements

From a technological and policy standpoint, there is growing concern that solutions being touted to meet GenAI’s power requirements will not be ready in time. How can we get to a solution faster as an industry? Do we need to pivot away from current thinking? What technologies are coming through the pipeline? How does policy need to evolve?

Innovative Energy Design

The future of data centres lies in innovative energy solutions. From mini-grids to new energy storage technologies, discover how cutting-edge designs can reduce reliance on traditional power sources. Learn how to create flexible energy systems capable of switching between multiple energy inputs to enhance efficiency and sustainability.

Energy forecasting, renewables procurement and effective hedging

Assembling hyperscaler and data centre energy procurement teams, renewable energy IPPs and developers, brokers and energy analysts, and chipset manufacturers and OEMs – how accurately can we model data centre load growth in Europe? How healthy is the European PPA market and to what extent can it meet carbon reduction targets? How can we move towards 24/7 power matching? How can the industry ensure access to sufficient affordable green power?

Navigating EU and national ESG reporting requirements

As the industry looks for support on the myriad of EU and national ESG reporting requirements they are subject to, join interactive focus groups assembling peers and experts helping you to navigate the landscape.

Energy Efficiency with AI & Automation

Automation and AI are revolutionising energy management within data centres. Learn how advanced AI systems and automation tools can reduce energy waste, optimise operations, and lower costs. Discover how to implement data-driven decision-making to monitor and manage energy consumption in real time, boosting efficiency across your facility.

Discover the biggest energy trends impacting data centres and the strategies to tackle them

We recently brought together leaders across the digital infrastructure industry to discuss one of the biggest issues facing the sector: energy. With power demand surging and sustainability targets becoming more demanding, finding the right strategies has never been more urgent.

The discussions were invaluable, with many organisations leaving with new strategies and initiatives to tackle these energy challenges head-on. That's why we've developed this report to share those key insights with you. It offers data-driven guidance to support your decision-making and help you benchmark your strategies against industry best practices.
