Data Centre Dispatchable Capacity: A Major Opportunity for Europe’s Energy Transition

Europe's energy landscape is at a crossroads, facing unprecedented power demands, driven by AI. A new research paper, a collaboration between AVK and Wärtsilä, presents a compelling vision for how data centre microgrids can become a cornerstone of Europe's energy transition. By leveraging dispatchable power, data centre microgrids can save public sector grid infrastructure capex, curb emissions, minimise wasted energy, and provide a balanced and cost-effective pathway to net zero.
