The world needs data. Data needs power.

The world needs data. Data needs power.

As the world's appetite for data grows, so does the demand for energy. However, traditional grid connections aren't always available or sufficient to meet this increasing need. To meet increasing demand while reducing impact, the data centre industry must find new, sustainable ways to power its growth.

Flexible, sustainable solutions

The AVK approach integrates flexible assets into microgrids, allowing for a number of sources for power generation. This is an essential part of bringing renewable energy sources, which are variable, into the critical power mix. Data centres can adopt renewable energy sources and enhance sustainability further with hydrogen-ready systems that can run on HVO fuel. Microgrids also reduce the geographical constraints for data centre locations. Bypassing the national grid unlocks new sites and allows for faster construction and operation.

Giving back to the grid - and the community

Our flexible microgrid solutions provide dispatchable power, making data centres more stable, adaptable and supportive of the grid. They also have the potential to become part of the national infrastructure, contributing to broader energy solutions.

Battery storage solutions

AVK designs, implements and maintains a wide range of cutting-edge battery storage solutions for all kinds of client applications. By coupling critical applications using gas turbines, reciprocating gas engines, and diesel engines with innovative energy storage systems, we deliver incredible flexibility and competitive grid-scale storage.

Operations and maintenance

Microgrids effectively function as a stand-alone power grid, so they require constant attention and expert care to ensure optimal performance. Through our partnership with Wärtsilä, we can take full responsibility for the operation and maintenance of your microgrid. Our comprehensive lifecycle solutions integrate advanced technology, sophisticated software, and expert service to protect your investment, drive efficiency and guarantee safe and reliable operations.
