Data centers must be designed to operate reliably in the face of environmental shocks, resource constraints, and long-term system uncertainty. This session explores how scenario modeling and system-level foresight can inform infrastructure planning, balancing performance, sustainability, and adaptability in an evolving energy and policy landscape. We’ll examine how advanced modeling tools and data-driven strategies can help decision-makers anticipate and adapt to a rapidly changing environment.
