The Cooling Revolution: Powering the AI Era with Less Energy

AI is driving unprecedented growth in data center power demand, but generating more electricity alone will not solve the challenge. Cooling represents one of the largest opportunities to improve efficiency, free up grid capacity, reduce water consumption, and enable more compute from available power.

This session brings together leaders in data centers, energy, technology, and climate innovation to explore how next-generation cooling, thermal energy storage, and waste-heat recovery can fundamentally reshape AI infrastructure.

EnEarthia will introduce ResStor™, an innovative approach that uses the Earth as a thermal battery to store and manage thermal energy, dramatically reducing the electricity required for cooling while eliminating water consumption for heat rejection and creating opportunities to capture and reuse heat rather than waste it to the atmosphere.

The discussion will explore a bigger question: Instead of asking only where the enormous amount of power required for AI will come from, should we first ask how…
