The smarter E Europe (Intersolar Europe, ees Europe, Power2Drive, EM-Power)
About the event
Europe's largest alliance of energy exhibitions covering solar, battery storage and grid technology (conferences 7-8 June at ICM München), relevant to engineers planning data centre energy supply.
Who it is for / why attend
For electrical engineers and investors on the energy-supply side of DC projects, covering PV hybrid, storage and grid solutions. There is no data-centre section at the show; the topic appears only in editorial content.

Grid-Interactive Data Centers: Enabling Decarbonization and System Stability
When sizing UPS batteries, model a grid-services band on top of the required autonomy.
- Irish field case: the UPS delivered a static 25 kW response when frequency fell below 49.70 Hz.

How to Maximize Revenues from Your Data Center Energy Storage System with Grid Interactive UPS
Model UPS battery state of charge as partitioned: reserved backup energy used for autonomy checks plus an optional grid-service band.
- Minimum asset size for frequency response services is typically 1-50 MW.

Wired for Change: Data Centers' Dynamic Shift to Hybrid Power Solutions
Extend the power-source library beyond utility plus diesel: BESS (AC- or DC-coupled to the UPS), SOFC prime power, PEM backup fuel cell, PV and CHP, each with fuel type, start time, ramp capability and emissions factor.
- UPS stored energy typically bridges 30 minutes to over 2 hours until gensets or the grid restore supply.
