Designing data center power today often means moving forward without knowing future load requirements.

This session explores lessons learned from working with operators facing that uncertainty, highlighting which early assumptions can create long-term constraints, versus where modular strategies enable operators to defer decision-making without compromising reliability. With considerations to the local Virginia market, David Skeans will also discuss how utility constraints and speed-to-market pressures are reshaping power strategies. 

Attendees will gain practical insights into designing flexible, scalable architectures, and learn how Starline, a brand of Legrand, approaches balancing immediate deployment needs with long-term adaptability in a rapidly evolving market.
