DIMAAG has entered into a partnership with Toshiba to develop battery storage solutions tailored for AI data centres, with PowerSecure — a subsidiary of Southern Company — set to supply the backup power solution for a Moses Lake data centre in the United States. The collaboration underscores the growing urgency among data centre operators to secure reliable, scalable energy infrastructure capable of supporting the intense power demands of artificial intelligence workloads.
The Moses Lake facility represents one of a growing wave of AI-oriented data centre projects across North America that require backup power systems far beyond the capacity of conventional installations. AI training and inference workloads can draw power at levels that fluctuate dramatically, making both grid stability and on-site energy resilience critical design considerations. The partnership between DIMAAG and Toshiba aims to address these challenges by combining advanced battery storage technology with proven backup power delivery systems.
The announcement comes amid a broader surge in infrastructure activity across the AI data centre sector. Nvidia has separately partnered with Australian data centre firms to develop 2GW of AI infrastructure, while Qualcomm and Amazon have collaborated on customised AI data centre solutions. In Europe, Finland's Vaisala has introduced a new service portfolio for data centres, reflecting the global nature of the infrastructure buildout underway.
The involvement of PowerSecure as the backup solution provider for the Moses Lake site signals that established energy services companies are increasingly positioning themselves at the intersection of power generation and digital infrastructure. For data centre operators, the ability to secure long-term, resilient power supplies has become as important as access to land, fibre and computing hardware. The partnership is expected to serve as a reference model for future AI data centre projects requiring integrated battery storage and backup power systems.
