As hyperscale and AI-driven data centers push grid limits, traditional approaches to power integration are no longer sufficient. This session explores advanced control and coordination strategies to manage voltage fluctuations, stabilize rapidly varying loads, and enhance reliability in both grid-connected and islanded operating modes. In grid-connected contexts, attendees will learn how utilities and data centers can collaborate on coordinated integration strategies to maintain stability. In islanded scenarios, we'll examine how on-site generation ranging from gas engines and turbines to fuel cells and renewable energy with battery storage integrated with microgrid-level control to balance variable demand and regulate frequency and voltage. Participants will gain a fresh perspective on secondary control, inverter-based systems, and storage optimization, leaving with practical insights into building resilient data center infrastructures that maintain continuity, minimize operational disturbances, and secure future digital growth.
