As data centre expansion accelerates to meet the demands of AI, cryptocurrencies, and cloud services, Allegro Energy has announced the relevance and applicability of its cutting-edge long duration energy storage (LDES) technology in enabling scalable, sustainable energy solutions tailored to the unique needs of modern data centres.

With data centres operating on consistent, high-load profiles, they are uniquely positioned to benefit from a clean power strategy that combines renewable generation with long duration energy storage. Allegro Energy’s modular, scalable, and environmentally friendly battery systems present a breakthrough solution that overcomes the prohibitive cost, scalability and sustainability challenges associated with traditional lithium-ion or vanadium-based systems.

• Modularity & Scalability: Allegro’s LDES systems are designed to grow in parallel with a data centre’s needs. This allows incremental investment and deployment, a model that is ideal for both hyper-scale facilities and edge data centres.
• Renewable Compatibility: The system pairs seamlessly with solar and wind energy, helping data centres navigate grid volatility and peak pricing while advancing toward net-zero carbon targets.
• Climate-Friendly Storage Chemistry: Unlike conventional technologies, Allegro’s water based electrolyte is not resources constrained, offering a low-impact alternative that can be safely deployed at scale.
• Consistent Load Advantage: Data centres’ constant, 24/7 demand profiles make them ideal candidates for firming intermittent renewables with a storage option that delivers dependable performance without excessive cycling costs.

“The exponential growth of generative AI, cloud computing, and digital services has made energy a critical chokepoint in data infrastructure,” said Dr. Thomas Nann, CEO of Allegro Energy. “We believe the future of high-performance computing does not need to come at the cost of the planet. With our technology, data centres can be powered entirely by renewables, supported by reliable, cost-effective long-duration storage.”

Allegro Energy’s proprietary, locally manufactured microemulsion electrolyte technology has been widely recognised as a critical advancement in long-duration energy storage. This design eliminates the need for scarce or rare metals, dramatically reducing fire risk, and allowing for extended storage durations at a significantly lower cost.

As debate grows over the environmental footprint of AI, Allegro Energy demonstrates that a sustainable path forward is possible and ready for implementation today.
