We’re thrilled to share Jaimie Johnston MBE’s recent presentation from Autodesk University 2024 in San Diego.
Jaimie talked about the transformative advancements in data centre design and delivery, emphasising how innovative design principles and industrialised construction are setting a new standard across industries. Click here to watch the full session on Autodesk's website.
With the growing demands of AI, Jaimie discusses the challenges of powering data centres, focusing on scalable strategies to meet the escalating energy requirements that conventional grid infrastructure can’t support.
Jaimie highlights Bryden Wood’s Chip Thinking® approach, a modular system inspired by the integration of elements like chips on a motherboard, allowing faster, more flexible configurations for complex data centre designs. This method also facilitates rapid assembly and cost-effective scalability.
Addressing the urgent global demand for sustainable design, Jaimie outlines strategies to minimise embodied and operational carbon. He delves into the move toward clean energy solutions, including advanced nuclear and hydrogen, while driving industrialised processes to maximise efficiency and reduce waste.
Jaimie examines how data centre needs intersect with other sectors like pharmaceuticals and life sciences, with advances in AI and energy interdependence enabling more sophisticated, data-driven developments across industries.
Emphasising the shift toward a reference design approach, Jaimie showcases how data centres are adopting 'kits of parts,' allowing clients to scale quickly while adapting to site-specific needs. This approach leverages repeatable, standardised components, ensuring design integrity, speed, and flexibility.
