AI is reshaping data center demand

AI is accelerating demand for capacity, performance and scale. More than 41GW of compute capacity was added globally in the past year, with demand expected to continue rising as organizations expand AI, cloud and digital infrastructure. Organizations are rethinking how data centers are planned, delivered and operated to support the next wave of growth.

Powering growth takes more than compute

Availability of power is now a critical constraint for data center site selection and operations. As AI workloads evolve, data centers require coordinated approaches to power, cooling, connectivity and operations from the start, to support growth efficiently and sustainably.

Community support can accelerate growth

Community and stakeholder engagement are becoming key considerations in data center development. Organizations are engaging earlier on energy, water, jobs and local impact to build support, strengthen relationships and accelerate project delivery.

Integrated ecosystems are accelerating delivery

Organizations are bringing together utilities, suppliers, technology providers and operations teams in new ways to accelerate outcomes and deliver capacity at scale. Success increasingly depends on coordinating a growing ecosystem across the full lifecycle.

What you can do

Align power, site strategy and planning decisions early to support AI growth and long-term capacity needs. As demand increases, securing the right resources from the start is becoming a key advantage for scaling capacity efficiently.

Build strong relationships with stakeholders and communities from the outset. Early engagement around energy, water, jobs and local impact can strengthen support, improve project readiness and help accelerate delivery.

Bring new AI factory capacity online faster through integrated planning, delivery and execution across the data center lifecycle. Coordinated programs can improve speed, visibility and delivery certainty while reducing complexity.

Coordinate utilities, suppliers, technology providers and operations teams with greater visibility across the full lifecycle. Integrated ecosystem management can accelerate outcomes and support delivery at scale.

Upgrade and retrofit live data centers to support evolving technologies, improve performance and increase operational resilience while maintaining continuity across live environments.

Embed sustainability across planning, construction and operations to improve efficiency, support resilience and enable long-term growth.
