EdgeConneX is working with EQT to address the increasing power constraints for data centers as demand for AI infrastructure grows. EQT invested in EdgeConneX in 2020, recognizing its potential in the cloud infrastructure market.

By 2026, public cloud hyperscalers are expected to spend $670 billion on data centers, with AI capacity comprising 70% of demand by 2030. EdgeConneX plans to achieve 100% renewable energy by 2030, co-locating data centers with renewable power sources.

The company is focusing on scalable, modular solutions to meet rising power needs, as single server racks may soon require up to 1,000 kilowatts. EdgeConneX aims to grow its global presence and integrate energy and data center solutions to support increasing demand.
