What does the future of net-zero data centers look like? Manjari Makkar is helping answer that question on the global stage. Her technical paper, “Powering a Clean Future for Data Centers: A Net-Zero Framework Using BESS and Renewable Energy,” was selected for presentation at the prestigious Bharat Electricity Summit 2026.
The Bharat Electricity Summit brings together policymakers, utilities, engineers, researchers, and technology leaders to advance innovation in power systems, grid resilience, and the clean energy transition. Manjari’s paper earned its place through a highly competitive, multi-stage technical review process, making this a significant professional achievement.
Her research explores how hyperscale data centers can achieve real-time decarbonization through the strategic integration of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), renewable energy procurement, and advanced cooling technologies while maintaining Tier III reliability standards. The paper also examines how data centers can evolve from passive energy consumers into active participants in grid stabilization, improving both energy efficiency and system resilience.
This recognition highlights the technical expertise and innovative thinking within Mazzetti India and reinforces our commitment to helping clients navigate the intersection of mission-critical infrastructure, energy resilience, and sustainability.
Congratulations, Manjari, on this outstanding accomplishment and for representing Mazzetti at one of the industry’s leading energy forums.
