ENERGY & POWER
Q. CAN YOU DESCRIBE A CASE STUDY EXEMPLIFYING THIS TREND?
» One of the most compelling examples of next-generation sustainable backup is the mtu Kinetic PowerPack( KPP).
By using kinetic energy rather than chemical batteries, the KPP removes the environmental burden of battery production and disposal. It also delivers higher efficiency through reduced energy losses, supporting operators seeking to meet ESG obligations without compromising resilience. Advanced control systems optimise energy use in real time, minimising waste and ensuring stable performance even under volatile loads.
This shift demonstrates that high resilience and low-carbon operation are no longer competing priorities. With the right technologies, data centres can operate reliably while making measurable progress toward net-zero commitments, aligned with global climate objectives, including those expected to shape COP30 outcomes.
Q. HOW CAN EDGE SOLUTIONS AND DISTRIBUTED ENERGY MODELS OFFER INNOVATIVE POWER SOLUTIONS FOR DATA CENTRE OPERATORS?
» As data moves closer to users, power delivery must evolve to meet the unique needs of edge data centres and other critical infrastructure. Distributed energy systems, combining modular, hybrid, and renewable-ready
