DCD Panel: Will a ‘bring your own power’ approach combat the industry’s energy supply problem?

The first step in creating a sustainable and resilient power ecosystem is to source power from a sustainable and reliable utility. However, in a market significantly constrained by capacity and intermittent power, data centers are being forced to explore options for bringing their own power. However, given the regional nuance for energy supply combined with demand uncertainty, how can operations ensure they develop a robust ‘Bring Your Own Power Approach’?

During this episode, expert speakers will shed light on data center demand and utility capacity, and what that delta means for data centers who need to explore alternative sources of power to secure their power supply. By exploring the full data center lifecycle, starting at the design phase, this episode will provide attendees with the necessary insights to navigate a variable and complex power ecosystem.
