New Conference to Be Held September 29 - October 1, 2025 in San Antonio, TX Tackles Challenge and Opportunity of Powering Data Centers

In response to surging global demand for digital infrastructure and growing urgency around energy sourcing, the team behind the industry's largest and most respected data center event announces the launch of Data Center World POWER - a new conference dedicated exclusively to the intersection of data centers and power. The event will take place September 29 - October 1, 2025 at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort & Spa in San Antonio, Texas. Registration is now open at www.dcwpower.com.

The show brings together data center decision makers and energy innovators to highlight the industry’s most pressing challenge – and opportunity: power resourcing. Backed by Diamond sponsor VoltaGrid and Platinum sponsor Industrial Info Resources, Data Center World POWER is purpose-built for leaders navigating capacity constraints, sustainability mandates and power-intensive AI workloads. The program features insightful keynotes, solution-driven panels, and elite networking opportunities.

“Our flagship event, Data Center World, grew more than 70% in 2025 - fueled by the demand to expand digital infrastructure in response to cloud computing, AI, 5G, remote work, e-commerce and data-intensive applications,” said Tara Gibb, Senior Director, Data Center World Portfolio, Informa Connect. “With Data Center World POWER, we’re providing an intimate, focused platform where today’s top decision makers can align on how to power the next era of data growth - efficiently, sustainably, and at scale.”

Texas was selected as the launch location due to its unique position as a global energy hub and fast-growing data center market. The region offers a natural convergence point for both energy and digital infrastructure leadership to collaborate. From energy providers and infrastructure leaders to sustainability experts and policy influencers slated to speak in more than 20 sessions, the Conference explores the strategies and solutions needed to align massive digital growth with resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy infrastructure.
