Vattenfall, a partner of the Dutch Datacenter Association (DDA), is working toward a fossil-free future. A future with no or less dependence on fossil fuels. We do this by investing significantly in wind and solar parks ourselves and by working with companies and organizations to reduce the use of fossil energy. Because every sector has unique circumstances, we take an approach that is specifically tailored to the sector. In doing so, we draw on our knowledge and expertise of the energy market, as well as that of the different sectors. One of those sectors is data centers.
Data centers are the backbone of our digital society. The growth of AI and cloud applications is driving increasing energy demand and making reliability crucial. Vattenfall supports data centers with solutions that combine security of supply with sustainability. For example, we work with several large data centers in the Netherlands and Sweden.
The energy transition brings significant challenges: volatile prices, grid congestion, and limited expansion options. Through collaboration and innovative solutions, sustainable growth is still possible in many cases. We would be happy to explore the possibilities with you.
Renewable electricity: including from our own wind farms Hollandse Kust Zuid and Zeevonk, but we can also offer Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)
Fossil-free backup power supply with battery storage and innovative Aquastroke technology
Guarantees of Origin (GoOs): transparency in the origin of energy
Congestion solutions such as EMS (Energy Management System) and battery storage
The energy transition brings major challenges: grid expansion will still take years, and the volatile energy market due to fluctuating supply of renewable energy remains a reality. Collaboration within and beyond the value chain is therefore essential. By sharing knowledge and information and working together with industry peers, organizations, and suppliers, it is possible to find solutions. Vattenfall has been a proud partner of the DDA for many years. In this way, we want to make our knowledge of the energy market available to your sector, while at the same time staying well informed about developments affecting the data center sector.
With more than 100 years of experience in energy supply and a strong focus on sustainability, Vattenfall is a reliable partner for data centers that want to innovate and become more sustainable. As an integrated energy company with a sector-specific approach, we provide end-to-end solutions for all energy issues across different sectors.
