Spotlight on energy and environmental considerations roundtable

A breakfast roundtable session for a practical, open and interactive discussion for landowners promoting data centres, energy generation entities, developers, operators and financiers.

With demand for new data centre capacity accelerating faster than ever, power availability and behind the meter structures are critical factors in project viability and site selection, with emerging nuclear solutions requiring consideration for long-term operations.

Our specialists in power infrastructure, environmental regulation and nuclear energy will offer insight into the current legal framework, Government policy and how market trends are shaping the next generation of data centres being developed. Discussion themes will include:

• The current position with NESO Grid Reform;
• Grid constraints, alternative energy strategies and co-location opportunities;
• Brief overview of nuclear regulation and Government policy;
• The role of nuclear and emerging technologies such as SMR's in meeting data centre demand;
• Navigating environmental considerations in data centre development and operation.
