Powering Up with ABB
The Shift to Medium Voltage Solutions
With exponential growth of data generation and storage, data centers are scaling up rapidly and construction trends are emerging. Higher power densities are required to support AI data centers. An industry shift to medium voltage systems has been shown to provide higher efficiency, better scalability, and reduced infrastructure complexity. Another initiative in construction is the desire to replace diesel with energy storage systems. Moving to medium voltage makes the most of this investment. With higher battery voltages, operators can optimize the distribution efficiency and thermal losses. While low voltage systems are largely used in today’s data center infrastructure, know that ABB has an extensive portfolio of medium voltage switchgear, circuit breakers and UPS for when your power demands surpass traditional construction and design architectures.
