SBS Lab professor Wangda Zuo had the amazing opportunity to discuss many interesting topics with Charlotte Trueman at the Datacenter Dynamics (DCD) broadcast. The episode titles “Enhancing grid independence and energy resilience” covered a variety of pertinent and interesting topics. Some of the ideas and questions discussed were “How can data centers meet the booming demand of AI while reducing carbon emissions?”, “Can we achieve ‘data center to grid integration?’, and “Can data centers help improve the resilience of power grids?” We really appreciate this opportunity to discuss and exchange ideas on the future of data centers and their impact on carbon emissions, grid demand, and energy consumption.

SBS Lab team members Viswanathan Ganesh, Hongjun Li, and Michael Maloney joined Prof. Wangda Zuo at the DatacenterDynamics (DCD) Connect conference in Virginia on November 6-7. This was an amazing opportunity for the team to learn about the newest advancements in AI and liquid cooling technology. Prof. Zuo was also able to participate in a panel discussion on Waste Heat Reduction alongside many industry experts. It was also very beneficial to hear the insights of thought leaders in the datacenter world.

We give many thanks to Matt Welch and DatacenterDynamics for their amazing support, thanks to their generosity three of our Ph.D. students were able to attend the conference and learn much from the industry. This was a great opportunity for them to shape and guide their research thoughts, and will certainly enhance their contributions to the field.
