Speed to Power: Building for Reliable Operations (Oct. 15th)
Thursday, October 15th, 2026: 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM
Drawing on 25+ years of mission-critical commissioning and complex energy infrastructure experience, Veolia experts will share strategies for reducing risk, protecting uptime and maximizing the value of every available megawatt. A real-world case study of a 350 MW microgrid supporting a hyperscale AI data center campus will show these strategies in action.

Grid constraints and long interconnection timelines are making speed to power one of the biggest challenges facing data center growth. Microgrids and on-site generation can provide a faster path to power, helping projects come online sooner and reducing dependence on lengthy utility upgrades. But getting power is only part of the equation. That infrastructure must also be ready to perform reliably from day one.
Attendees will learn how to:
- Accelerate speed to power with microgrids and on-site generation
- Reduce startup and turnover risk by involving operators before construction is complete
- Protect uptime and reliability through stronger commissioning and operational readiness
- Maximize asset performance with continuous monitoring and predictive maintenance
- Improve long-term outcomes by aligning O&M accountability with reliability and availability
