Episode 1: Understanding 2025 - How AI is redefining power
Demand for higher compute is set to soar in the next year and the need for power availability is defining the next phase of infrastructure design and operations. How can the industry balance unprecedented AI workloads while maintaining power reliability? Join this episode to discuss:
- Where do data centers sit within the wider power ecosystem, and how is this changing?
- Understanding the gigawatt era, densification, and the power demand required for changing AI loads
- The next stage of modernizing facilities, from speed of deployment to integration and optimization
Speakers:
Phillip Marangella, EdgeConneX
Giovanni Zanei, Vertiv
Episode 2: Adapting to the new power landscape
Reliability is key to maintaining performance, but as AI workloads continue to adapt, how can the industry keep up with the pace of change? Join us in this session to understand the strategies operators can successfully implement to stay ahead of power demand. From BYOP, UPS resilience and AI load simulations, this episode’s featured case studies discuss in detail:
- Integrating AI power load simulations within facility operations
- UPS-fuel cell integration as a low-carbon power solution
- Applying energy management solutions including the ‘bring your own power’ approach
- Best practice for grid resiliency and independence in an era of high density compute
Speakers:
Stephen Worn, DCD
Arturo Di Filippi, Vertiv
Episode 3: Power availability in the gigawatt era
Data centers are expanding into larger, more power- consumptive architectures. The next decade will bring with it new challenges for power availability. How should operators adapt to suit new power sources, and how will power availability shape future operations? This episode will explore:
- Keeping sustainability top of mind for back up and generation
- Incorporating conscious care and power efficiency into data center operations
- Proactive planning for power availability
- The role of successful grid relationships in maintaining uptime
Speakers:
Arturo Di Filippi, Vertiv
