Germany’s National Data Centre Strategy launched in March this year, which aims to double data centre capacity and quadruple AI-specific capacity by 2030. This is a key demand signal for renewables and specifically BESS in Germany.
- Promoting BESS as an additional buffer and active energy manager, supporting Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) & Netzersatzanlagen (NEA) required for data centres
- Delivering data centre growth in key areas like Frankfurt/Rhine-Main during times of limited grid capacity and long connection timelines
- Integrating renewables, improving efficiency, and aligning with evolving German regulatory frameworks for storage
