AI Data Centers Power and Cooling Strategies 2026: The Texas Edition
From Resource Adequacy To Off-Grid & Behind The Meter Power
For Texas — and increasingly, multiple U.S. growth corridors — the simple reality is that the grid solutions alone are unlikely to support the load demand of the next generation of AI data centers. AI facilities are not just “bigger data centers.” – the mechanical-electrical-thermal envelope has fundamentally changed. We’re talking hundreds of megawatts per site, delivered quickly, with power-density profiles the traditional grid model was never built to accommodate.
This is the first Texas-focused business conference dedicated entirely to the twin challenges that will define AI-scale data centers: securing reliable power and deploying next-generation cooling.
