The Energy Summit: Your Roadmap to Navigating European Power Constraints
The demand of AI, along with grid constraints, is pushing the industry towards an unprecedented need to meet the power demand. Taking place during DCD Connect | London, the Energy Summit aims to outline both the power and energy challenges facing the European data centre market. With a deep dive into some of the most topical conversations around grid reform, off grid generation as well as discussions around battery storage solutions and where nuclear fits in the bigger picture, it is key to be part of the conversations that will define the future of the data centre industry.
The Energy Summit addresses the challenges ahead and provides a platform to present new solutions to addressing energy constraints.
