Operators are now facing the prospect of building multiple facilities concurrently, potentially across different site locations, instead of taking up to five years to bring a site online, the average development cycle is down to 18-24 months. A modular approach can help to refine and streamline the process at a time when speed and efficiency are top priorities to service the overwhelming demand for new facilities.

The data center industry stands at a critical crossroads, facing two existential challenges: securing access to clean power while navigating growing public opposition to infrastructure expansion. Addressing these challenges requires moving beyond traditional, siloed approaches to innovation and infrastructure development.
The Net Zero Innovation Hub for Data Centers brings together operators, technology providers, innovators, and energy stakeholders to accelerate collaborative innovation and deployment and address the challenges head-on. To create a positive impact for both local communities and broader sustainability goals, the industry must increasingly look beyond the fence.
This session explores why the data centers of the future require a new approach to design and integration - combining deep technical optimization inside the facility with stronger integration into surrounding energy systems and communities.
Through concrete collaborative projects and real-world examples, join us as we showcase concrete, collaborative projects currently validating the cutting-edge technologies and systemic solutions needed to build the data centers of tomorrow

AI training and inference workloads create extreme, millisecond-scale power swings – with load jumps of tens of megawatts in fractions of a second – that traditional UPS and backup systems were never designed to handle, leading to voltage instability, breaker trips, and generator stress. In this session, Ampace will demonstrate how next-generation lithium battery architectures evolve the UPS from a passive emergency asset into an active, real-time load-smoothing layer. By absorbing instantaneous power surges and delivering ultra-fast charge-discharge response, these batteries stabilize AI infrastructure, reduce upstream grid and generator strain, and support millions of micro-cycles without sacrificing lifespan. The presentation will share AI-typical cycling conditions, present a co-optimized UPS-plus-battery architecture for dynamic load management, and quantify the business impact – from lower peak-demand charges to the ability to host AI workloads in facilities originally designed for steady-state loads. The takeaway: the lithium battery becomes the critical enabler that makes gigawatt-scale AI growth sustainable, reliable, and economically viable.
