DCD Connect Madrid May 21-22 2024
Like all advanced economies Spain is tackling the challenges of energy transition to decarbonise power supply in a time of mass electrification of everything from transport to manufacturing.
If it is to meet the surging demand for digital infrastructure one industry that must rapidly ensure access to clean power capacity is the data centre sector.
The figures of the growing number of data centre facilities being planned in Spain and across LATAM tell the story. With a rapid increase in data centre operator and hyperscaler deployments, Spain’s data centre market is projected to grow from $3.81 billion in 2022 to $5.28 billion by 2028 as reported by Statista. The Latin America data center market size was valued at US$5.51 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US$8.81 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 8.14% reported arizton.
Like all energy intensive sectors data centres welcome developments in traditional grid modernisation, and growth in renewable energy generation capacity energy.
But data centre developers are also aware they must look to local power generation and Microgrids if they are to guarantee access to clean power to match the scale of the requirement.
This is why Piller with its Bergen Engines and Marelli Motori partners in Langley Holdings’ Power Solutions Division have developed the Power of 10.
The Power of 10 brings a unique approach to Microgrid development built around scalable modular, 10MW gensets that parallel from 30MW-300MW and beyond.
It is a standardised component-based approach that works with all Variable Renewable Energy Resources (VRERs), with energy storage options and that provides significant advantages over traditional static, inverter and battery deployments.
To learn more about how the different Power of 10 hybrid renewable microgrid components such as Bergen’s medium speed hydrogen ready engines combine with Piller’s Integrated Power Conditioning and Stabilisation Technology to meet the requirements of large scale data centres please join Tomas Arlegui, MD, Power Solutions, and Carlos Prieto MD, Bergen Engines for a showcase session at 11.50am on May 22nd at DCD Connect Madrid
