Standardising the AI Data Center: Inside OCP's Open Data Center for AI

04 Nov 2026
Edge, Data & AI Solutions Theatre

AI infrastructure is scaling faster than the industry can align around how to build it, leaving operators to solve the same power, cooling and rack integration problems over and over. This panel examines how OCP's Open Data Center for AI initiative is converting that pressure into open and shared specifications and standards that cut deployment time and design risk. Senior representatives from ABB, Schneider Electric and Vertiv will discuss their experience working through OCP and the wider ecosystem, where consensus came quickly where it proved harder, and how the resulting work is landing in live AI data centre projects. The discussion closes on what still needs to be standardised, and how the supply chain and end users can contribute.
