Data Centres and Renewables: Integrated Business Models and Financing
Data centres are moving beyond solely green certificates to secure time matched or dedicated renewable energy through partnerships and joint ventures with renewable developers.
As market pressures reshape business models and present challenges to grid access for datacenters, including those of renewable energy developers (solar, wind, battery energy storage providers), new opportunities emerge to directly integrate clean energy solutions into data centre projects.
Join this panel to examine concrete strategies for securing dedicated renewable energy and adapting your data centre and renewable energy projects to shifting market conditions. This session is designed for renewable energy and data centre developers, operators, financiers, and advisors in their early to mid-career stage.
Discussion Points:
- Transition from renewable energy based solely on certificates to dedicated renewable energy infrastructure in data centre power supply
- Emerging joint ventures and alternative business models between data centre operators, renewable developers, and BESS providers
- Outlook: opportunities for innovation and collaboration in integrating renewables with data centre operations
- Financial opportunities and challenges impacting investment in and financing of renewables (for data centres)
