Investment Forum | London // Leadership Roundtable: Energy investment - addressing energy constraints, exploring utility partnerships & sustainable market expansion

The exponential growth of digital infrastructure, particularly with the rise of AI, has intensified the focus on energy as both a crucial opportunity and a significant limitation for expansion. Operators and investors are facing the pressing challenge of securing reliable and sustainable power, navigating increasingly strained grids, and identifying innovative strategies to meet escalating demand.

This panel will analyze how operators and investors are evaluating energy opportunities and limitations for their expansion plans, including their investments in on-site energy and transmission, and how energy companies are, in turn, investing in the data center market. We will explore the increasing significance of utility partnerships for data center growth and examine the rising traction of powered land structures, including pitfalls to avoid, to unlock value and ensure sustainable development.
