AVK Moves Data Centre Power Towards Energy as a Service
Securing enough power is becoming a development problem rather than an engineering one AVK is responding by changing the commercial model around data-centre power. In September, the company launched AVK Capital, a dedicated funding arm that will finance and own on-site power infrastructure, allowing data centre customers to secure electricity through long-term Power Purchase Agreements…

AI Data Center Power Design: Rewriting the Rules for the Modern UPS
The AI shock wave and why the UPS is becoming power’s new bottleneck For decades, the UPS had a simple, rather unglamorous job: sit quietly, clean up minor utility wrinkles, and keep the lights on just long enough for generators to kick in during a blackout, it was an insurance policy, nothing more. That era…

Google Bets on Nuclear Uprates
Rather than waiting years for new nuclear construction, Google is paying to squeeze more power out of reactors Georgia Power already operates — a novel tariff-based deal that adds 96 megawatts to the grid and could become a template for how AI companies secure firm, carbon-free power faster than new plants can be built.

GridLock: Why Hyperscalers Are Buying Their Own Substations
While tech giants pour billions into advanced AI chips, their multi-gigawatt growth roadmaps are stalling at the local power grid. To survive the infrastructure crunch, cloud operators are transforming into heavy industrial procurement giants buying up transformer supply lines and building their own utility-scale substations.
