DC Energy distribution in Data Centers.

Data center electric distribution from a different angle.

Join us to discover advantages and challenges of DC data center distribution. Let’s discuss alternative  distribution solutions to meet new trends and technologies in data center industry.

Being one of the highest growing markets and fastest evolving industries, data centers are continuously searching for new technologies to answer most demanding requirements for energy efficiency, sustainability, scalability and continuity of service. Most important data center components are using direct current (batteries, IT loads, some cooling loads…), thus it is natural to conclude that reduction of AC/DC conversion stages can answer challenging data center requirements. Still, most common data center distribution is in traditional AC. Looking at the market requirements and new technologies, we might be on the point of change, where gradually DC distribution is going to become the most usual way the energy is distributed within data centers. Join us to discover more.
