Why land is a strategic risk asset for data centres

Global demand for digital infrastructure has never been stronger. Cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and everyday digital life are driving record investment in new capacity. But to secure growth, it’s essential to treat land as a strategic risk asset – bringing significant value, but also introducing severe exposures from power availability to planning permissions.Global demand for digital infrastructure has never been stronger.

Once a niche interest, around 12% of UK adults now own some form of digital assets – equivalent to 7 million people.

As renewable energy plays an increasingly vital role in the global energy mix, forms of long-duration energy storage (LDES) are vital to meet overall energy demand, manage price volatility, and ensure reliable supply during periods of low generation. But as energy demand continues to grow, developers are increasingly targeting longer durations, and more complex projects. Inevitably, this introduces new challenges and risks that must be managed to make LDES a bankable prospect.As renewable energy plays an increasingly vital role in the global energy mix, forms of long-duration energy storage (LDES) are vital to meet overall energy demand, manage price volatility, and ensure reliable supply during periods of low generation.
