Power for data centres

For data centre owners and operators, securing power increasingly requires consideration of both contractual arrangements and physical delivery, including grid access, timing, resilience and long term power requirements.

Power needs can extend beyond access to supply alone, particularly where customers are considering longer term arrangements, sustainability objectives, or the interaction between contractual structures and physical delivery.

• Physical power supply
  Arrangements linked to physical delivery requirements, where customers are considering how commercial
  arrangements and physical power needs interact over the life of a project.
• Power Purchase Agreements
  Power purchase agreements and related long term arrangements that can form part of a broader power
  strategy, aligning longer term supply with site needs and procurement objectives.
• Environmental attributes
  Renewable certificates and other recognised carbon instruments, together with supporting documentation
  for their transfer and use.
