Keep the Lights On

A medium-difficulty individual challenge on data center energy risks: power availability, 24/7 supply, grid connection, redundancy, water and bankability.

How it works

Each participant answers individually. There are no teams, no pitch and no visible timer. The facilitator simply gives the rhythm and launches a short debrief at the end.

Your mission is simple: keep the lights on. A data center cannot go down, so your strategy must balance reliability, speed-to-power, low-carbon supply and risk management.
