The impetus behind the Dynamic Grid Support project stems from a commitment to cultivating environmental stewardship and making tangible contributions to the community . Enhancing sustainability , adding capacity and contributing to a more stable grid in the Nordic region epitomises a
15-year partnership , with aspirations to perpetuate this trajectory into the future .

Vertiv , a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions , alongside Conapto , a leading Swedish colocation provider , and Fever Energy , a key player in grid support solutions , have announced the introduction of

Dynamic Grid Support in Conapto ’ s operations .
Harnessing power from Vertiv Liebert EXL S1 , an innovative Uninterruptible Power Supply ( UPS ) system which provides an integrated solution for critical power protection and grid support capabilities , this initiative aims to enhance sustainability through maximum energy efficiency of the UPS and reduced CO 2 emissions through use of alternative energy sources .
As digitalisation continues to accelerate the growth of Sweden ’ s digital infrastructure , the demand for stable , reliable and sustainable power sources has surged . Recognising this need , Vertiv , Conapto and Fever Energy have come together to give data centres the opportunity to play an active role in stabilising the grid while unlocking new revenue streams .
Through the innovative Dynamic Grid Support feature of the UPS , Conapto can actively contribute to grid stability by participating in Fast Frequency Response ( FFR ) and
Frequency Containment Reserve Demand ( FCR-D ). Vertiv ’ s solution optimises UPS capacity and employs Lithium-ion battery storage , enabling power support during peak utility demand , without significant infrastructure changes . By providing static and dynamic frequency regulation , along with demand management capabilities , the UPS helps grid stability and efficient resource utilisation , supporting the integration of alternative sources – such as wind , water and solar – in the energy ecosystem .
Stefan Nilsson , Chief Commercial Officer at Conapto
Conapto has selected the Vertiv Liebert EXL S1 UPS system , based on its ability to reduce energy consumption compared to less energy efficient alternatives . This solution provides high capacity in a
