Welcome to the second edition of Data Centre Magazine for April. Here are some of the topics we tackle in this magazine:

• Energy load balancing

• Advanced energy storage solutions for data centre operators

Elsewhere, we dive into the key takeaways from the 2026 Data Center Market Outlook by AlixPartners. In The Data Centre Interview, Matthew Baynes, VP of Secure Power & Data Centres for the UK and Ireland at Schneider Electric explains why collaboration is a fundamental component of successful digital infrastructure deployment with rising AI adoption. Our Top 10 in this magazine focuses on disaster recovery solution providers.

Thank you, as always, for reading – and please enjoy April’ s second edition.
