The race to build AI infrastructure is accelerating. But as individual data center demand regularly exceeds gigawatt scale, power system design is emerging as one of the industry's biggest challenges. Are traditional approaches still fit for purpose?
Advancing water resource recovery and delivering from rainfall to reuse
As utilities modernize electricity networks, embedding operational technology (OT) cybersecurity from the outset is essential to delivering a more resilient, reliable and future-ready grid. In this feature, Jacobs Associate Director of OT Cybersecurity Fikret Yildirim explores why cyber resilience must become a core design principle for successful grid transformation.
Fikret Yildirim works with critical infrastructure organizations to strengthen cyber resilience. He combines deep operational technology, engineering and cybersecurity expertise to enable clients to modernize and secure complex industrial environments.
As transportation systems electrify, organizations face growing pressure to improve resilience, manage energy costs and deliver infrastructure faster. Microgrids are emerging as a practical solution, helping ports, airports, rail operators and fleet owners support electrification while maintaining reliable operations.
A specialist in transportation decarbonization, Ryan Saunders has deep expertise in commercial vehicle electrification and has led fleet electrification, charging infrastructure and zero-emission programs for ports, transit agencies and public fleets across North America.
As demand for AI and cloud infrastructure accelerates, cooling is becoming a defining factor in data center performance. How can integrated approaches to energy, water and cooling improve resilience, reduce costs and support long term sustainability?
