The Data Center Construction Channel
How can data centers overcome challenges around building in North America?
Despite demand for build reaching a peak post-pandemic, the market for data construction has remained robust throughout the past year. However, with disruption surrounding supply chain & workforce challenges, inflation, land scarcity and energy supply issues, data centers have come up with creative solutions in the face of non-stop construction.
In this broadcast, expert speakers will provide an update on the tools, technologies & techniques being deployed in order to build for success in North America.
With Tier I markets reaching saturation point, where is likely to become the next "hot" destination to build? How is the demand for higher density workloads affecting the way data centers are designed and built? Crucially, speakers will share insights on how they overcoming energy hurdles with onsite power generation, and whether it's time to evolve the conversation of sustainability in construction to be less focused on carbon.
