Across the globe, activity in the Small Modular Reactor (SMR) space is gathering pace. Governments, regulators, atomic agencies and authorities, global power manufacturers, research bodies and new market entrants are busy. For the data centre industry, the question is whether SMRs are applicable to the sector? Could they change how data centres are powered?

Small modular reactor maker seeks large data center partner?

The industry won’t move from pilot projects to large-scale use of fuel cells without a greater understanding of the technology

With new mandates such as SECR (Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting) and CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) obliging data centre companies to report their sustainability efforts, a New GHG Abatement Group White Paper is published to help data centre operators work towards the ultimate goal of sustainable green energy storage.

Heatwaves are changing the risk appetite for data centre operators when thinking about a safe operating temperature. More extreme weather patterns resulting in higher temperature peaks, such as the record…

Global climatic change means that for every part of the power chain from generation, across the grid and for intensive energy users such as data centres, the name of the game is carbon abatement.

As the world goes digital and hybrid, energy risks are growing.
With so many applications now cloud-dependent, Ed Ansett looks at how datacentres are responding to this changed demand (p24)

Power is the life blood of data centre operations, but can it be made adaptable for power chains to be more responsive to multiple IT services SLAs? In this article, Ed Ansett unpacks how ARP can automatically provision power applications with different availability SLAs in the same data centre. Read here now on page 46
