The Data Centre Solutions Video magazine contains the latest Zoom interviews with experts in the industry.
Katie Coulson, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Skanska Advanced Technology, discusses the many factors which need to be considered when delivering a data centre design and build, including the weather, available labour, power and water. Katie goes on to explain how modular, repeatable design and construction techniques and the harnessing of AI are helping to address the challenges of delivering new facilities as quickly as possible for the current AI boom.

Adhum Carter Wolde-Lule, Director at Prism Power Group, highlights the fact that switchgear is fast becoming one of the biggest hidden constraints in UK (and elssehwere) commercial construction - with data centres absorbing enormous volumes of low voltage and medium voltage switchgear, along with AI workloads, hyperscale cloud expansion and government backing of digital infrastructure, demand has raced into a different gear entirely. Adhum explains that, as a result, switchgear is no longer a late-stage procurement item that can be slotted in once the design is largely complete. It has become a critical path risk that requires early design freeze and early engagement with manufacturers.

Shahar Belkin, Chief Evangelist at ZutaCore, explains how the company’s OmniTherm™ cold plate enables waterless two-phase cooling for manufacturers building servers with the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs in a single-slot PCIe form factor - supporting full-power operation in standard enterprise and AI cloud server environments. OmniTherm enables a transition to two-phase liquid cooling without introducing water inside the server. The single-slot design allows operators to increase accelerator density in standard server architectures while capturing heat into a liquid loop, reducing reliance on extreme fan speeds that can create excessive noise, waste power and cause challenging operating conditions in the data centre.

Sean Burke, CEO at Enteligent, positions 800V DC to 50V DC as the ‘missing piece’ in AI data centre power design. While 800VDC distribution solves the upstream limitations of traditional AC infrastructure, converting it directly to a 50VDC server bus within the rack addresses the final conversion bottleneck at the server level. Sean explains that the combination of 800VDC facility distribution with rack-level 800VDC-to-50VDC conversion represents a complete, DC-native power architecture that aligns with the realities of modern data centre requirements.

Keith Norman, Chief Marketing & Sustainability Officer of Lyten, explains the reasons behind the company’s acquisition of Northvolt’s battery assets in Sweden, with the site expected to resume operations and to deliver commercial cells in the second half of this year. Lyten is also establishing the Lyten Industrial Hub in Skellefteå, Sweden to co-locate battery manufacturing, data centres, and additional manufacturing activities - with EdgeConneX planning to acquire a data centre site from Lyten, with potential capacity of up to one gigawatt.

Drew Gravitt is Senior Director of Distributed Generation & Microgrid Sales at Mission Critical Group (MCG) explains how the demand for data centres is surging due to AI and digital services and how this is placing increasing strain on existing power infrastructure. With many data centre developers facing long wait times for grid connections, Drew goes on to discuss the ways in which distributed generation and microgrids can help address the ‘time-to-power’ problem.

Ryan Parker, Phononic's President & COO, discusses the data centre thermal management challenge, the company’s GPU HBM cooling solution and introduces the idea of Thermal Fabric, a real-time thermal control platform that transforms cooling from a reactive cost centre into a system level intelligence layer without the instability tax.

Thiri Shwesin Aung, founder and CEO of Nyxium, discusses how she and co-founder, Paul Seurin, have built an agentic AI platform that helps energy and infrastructure developers decide where projects are most likely to get approved and built, before months of time and millions in development costs are committed – set against a background where permitting and siting, not capital or technology, are increasingly determining what actually gets built as AI-driven data centre demand continues to increase.

Matt Wilkins, Global Director of Design and Engineering at Colt DCS, explains that data centre operators need ‘controlled flexibility’ now more than ever, as tightened regulatory environments, skills gaps, grid constraints, and enormous computational intensity, driven by AI, create the perfect storm. Matt believes Global Reference Designs (GRDs) could be the key to deliver future-proof data centres that are both resilient and able to flex in line with demand.
