Edge AI compute with on-site power
An edge data center planned with its own battery storage and solar, so compute is not waiting on the grid.
[ The situation ]
An organization needs AI compute close to its operations, but the local grid cannot add capacity for years. Waiting would push the program back indefinitely.
[ How we approach it ]
- 01Assess candidate sites for land, fiber, permitting and grid position
- 02Size modular compute to the workload, in phases
- 03Design battery storage and solar to carry the load and ride through outages
- 04Run permitting and interconnection in parallel with the compute plan
[ What should change ]
- A compute plan no longer gated by grid upgrades
- Resilient power for critical workloads
- Capacity that can grow in planned steps
