“The Carolinas region holds tremendous growth potential for new data center demand,” Mr. Ring said. “However, as this market continues to expand, we need to build more efficient facilities that offer a better value for colocation through better flexibility in server rack power density and greater efficiency. I am honored to be selected by CAPRE to address these important issues.”
