Enterprises across sectors rely heavily on legacy applications that are both mission-critical and difficult to evolve. Many of these [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Microgrids Seen as Key to Powering AI-Driven Data Center Growth Europe - European data centers are under mounting pressure as the rapid growth of artificial intelligence drives electricity demand to unprecedented levels, and a new joint research paper argues that microgrids could provide a way forward. The study was published by Wärtsilä and AVK.
The report by Wärtsilä and AVK highlights how a combination of renewable energy, grid balancing engines, and energy storage can offer a cost-efficient and lower-emissions model for powering data centers, while simultaneously helping Europe advance its energy transition.
The report, ‘Data centre dispatchable capacity: a major opportunity for Europe's energy transition,' outlines the scale of the challenge. Power [...]
📅 - Digital Realty, OQC, NVIDIA Launch first Quantum-AI Data Center in NYC - Digital Realty, Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC), and NVIDIA have unveiled the launch of what they call the world's first dedicated Quantum-AI data center, located at Digital Realty's JFK10 facility in New York City. The project brings together superconducting quantum computing, AI-accelerated supercomputing, and enterprise-grade data center infrastructure in a single deployment.
It marks a significant milestone in the convergence of two of the most transformative technologies in modern computing.
At the heart of the initiative is OQC's GENESIS quantum computer, described as a logical-era machine designed to reduce hardware overheads for error correction. This system has now been integrated [...]
📅 - ABB Invests $110M in US to Boost Electrification, Data Center Demand - ABB is set to expand its footprint in the United States with an additional $110 million investment in 2025, focusing on research, development, and manufacturing of advanced electrification solutions. The move underscores the growing pressure on industries to manage rising energy costs and improve efficiency at a time when the U.S. energy landscape is being reshaped by surging data center demand and grid modernization efforts.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), U.S. wholesale electricity prices rose by 30 to 40 percent in the first half of 2025 compared to 2024, reflecting the mounting challenges facing operators across sectors.
