Energy Vault and RackScale Data Centers have formed a strategic partnership to accelerate the delivery of 2GW of firm power to data center sites using Energy Vault's B-Nest™ hyperscale battery energy storage system. The B-Nest™ provides a significant increase in installed site energy density, enabling data centers to have primary power for over 10 hours. This partnership addresses the challenges of long wait times for grid power by utilizing interruptible utility power contracts. The B-Nest™ infrastructure deployment is part of a larger plan to support the growing demand for power in data centers, with projections showing a 160% increase by 2030. By participating in demand response programs with local utilities, the partnership aims to not only meet the data center power demand but also contribute to grid stability and renewable power expansion. The product launch of B-Nest™ introduces a new long-duration energy storage system designed to overcome space constraints typically associated with data center sites. Engineered for safety and compliance with permitting requirements, the B-Nest will be operated by Energy Vault's VaultOS Energy Management System to optimize BESS operations. Both Energy Vault and RackScale Data Centers express enthusiasm for the partnership, acknowledging the B-Nest™ system's potential to revolutionize data center operations and contribute to a sustainable energy future. The collaboration aims to set a new industry standard for power delivery, supporting the growth and reliability of data center infrastructure.
