The growing power demands of AI and high-density workloads are reshaping how data centers interact with the grid, making traditional power topologies obsolete. The power challenge is no longer just securing power capacity, but deploying resilient, grid-interactive architectures that can ride through severe step loads and voltage disturbances. Drawing on the partnership of EPC Power and On.Energy, this session explores how their gigawatt scale deployments have utilized grid-forming inverter technology and medium-voltage energy storage to accelerate time-to-power and set new standards for transmission-level stability. Topics include:

• Market realities vs. misconceptions around grid-forming inverters and ‘AI UPS’ architectures
• Accelerated time to power through real-time power modeling and digital twins
• Transient event management and fault tolerance in high-density facilities
• Scaling deployment to gigawatt volumes while preparing for future power demand and evolving IEEE transmission-level standards
