PANEL WEBINAR: From backup to backbone – Rethinking battery strategy for AI-ready data centres

AI is changing the power challenge facing data centres. Not only is it increasing overall electricity demand, but it’s also creating faster and less predictable changes in load as GPU clusters ramp up and down. At the same time, constrained grid capacity, rising sustainability expectations and growing scrutiny of resilience are forcing operators to reconsider how their critical power infrastructure is designed.

In this webinar, we’ll explore why batteries can no longer be viewed simply as passive backup components. With that in mind, we’ll examine how operators can select, monitor and integrate battery systems to support resilient, efficient and adaptable data centre infrastructure.

During this 40-minute webinar, we’ll explore:

• How AI training and inference workloads are changing the demands placed on UPS and battery systems.
• How monitoring and battery intelligence can identify degradation before it impacts resilience.
• The potential role of batteries in peak management, on-site energy strategies and grid flexibility.
