Advancing Data Center EHS Construction

The U.S. data center market is entering an unprecedented build cycle, driven by AI workloads, hyperscaler expansion and cloud infrastructure demand. In 2026 alone, U.S. data center construction is estimated at $85.3 billion in annual spend, with hyperscalers committing over $400 billion in capital expenditure toward new facilities and capacity expansion. As construction activity accelerates, EHS requirements are scaling in parallel, with contractors and operators facing growing pressure to manage workforce safety, trade coordination and compliance across increasingly compressed delivery timelines.

In this environment EHS oversight becomes increasingly difficult to standardize at scale and safety teams struggle to manage multiple active sites simultaneously. Advancing Data Center EHS Construction 2026 returns bigger and better as the premier forum dedicated exclusively to addressing the industry's most critical phases of construction and commissioning where safety, speed and scale intersect most acutely and where improved collaboration and standards can have the greatest impact on outcomes across the data center lifecycle.

Across two tracks of content, join 200+ hyperscalers, colocators, developers and contractors to uncover practical strategies to:

- Build data center specific skills across your EHS workforce
- Understand how leadership models must evolve to support safe delivery
- Imbed safety culture across project partners
- Control high-risk construction and commissioning activities
- Strengthen core safety practices and Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) prevention
- Capture trade lessons learned to prevent recurring issues across projects

As the United States enters one of the most significant infrastructure build cycles in its history, this is where the who's who of the data center EHS industry come together to solve challenges, strengthen partnerships and shape the future of safety to competently construct and commission AI-ready infrastructure, faster.
