Connect | New York // DCD>Talks the capacity for powerful change with John Igo | Mainspring Energy

Due to their high load factors and utility generation, transmission, and distribution constraints, data centers face ever-present challenges connecting to the grid. However, utilities are increasingly open to flexible solutions, including "Bring Your Own Capacity" (BYOC) - a step beyond an enhanced version of "Bring Your Own Power" (BYOP) - where locally-sited capacity at or near the data centers generate power or collaborate with utilities to bridge shortfalls in conjunction with utility electricity supply to connect data center load faster. Can this be a more reliable and repeatable starting point for data centers to overcome their power supply issues and for utilities to keep up with high factor load growth?

Join John Igo from Mainspring Energy as he discusses how utilities, and especially co-ops, are leading in solving capacity challenges and how data centers can build strategic partnerships to secure reliable, scalable power as fast as the economy of the future demands.
