Energising AI data centers at speed and scale
AI is transforming the data center industry and creating unprecedented demand for power. As AI workloads become more power intensive and data center capacity continues to expand, access to reliable electricity is increasingly becoming a critical factor in how quickly new capacity can be brought online. Grid congestion, connection queues, supply-chain constraints and the need for resilient, flexible infrastructure are creating new challenges for data center developers and operators.
At Data Center World Australia 2026, Hitachi Energy will explore how data centers can unlock reliable, sustainable and flexible power at the scale and speed required by AI.
