ON-DEMAND WEBINAR

Powering the AI Era: Overcoming Data Center Energy Challenges With Distributed Generation

With data centers projected to consume a growing share of the nation’s power, securing reliable and scalable energy is more important than ever. This webinar will explore key insights from the 2025 Data Center Power Report, which reveals the expected need for 55 GW of data center IT capacity in the next five years and predicts that data centers could account for 8-12% of total U.S. power demand by 2030, up from 3-4% today.

Speakers will discuss alternative power solutions, such as fuel cells, to address grid interconnection delays and enable faster deployment. The conversation will also cover how energy-buying decisions are shifting beyond costs to include factors like sustainability, community impact, and faster time to power.

Attendees will:

  • Learn how innovative distributed power solutions, such as fuel cells, can help address grid interconnection challenges and reduce reliance on aging transmission infrastructure.
  • Discover how to bring data centers online faster by optimizing power strategies and integrating scalable, flexible, distributed power technologies, giving operators a competitive edge.
  • Gain insights into balancing the need for clean energy solutions with cost considerations, ensuring sustainable growth while meeting operational and environmental targets.
