Removing a fundamental bottleneck to AI data centre growth

Sean Burke, CEO at Enteligent, positions 800V DC to 50V DC as the ‘missing piece’ in AI data centre power design. While 800VDC distribution solves the upstream limitations of traditional AC infrastructure, converting it directly to a 50VDC server bus within the rack addresses the final conversion bottleneck at the server level. Sean explains that the combination of 800VDC facility distribution with rack-level 800VDC-to-50VDC conversion represents a complete, DC-native power architecture...

Cutting valve energy use by up to 80% in data centre cooling

In data centres, direct-to-chip liquid cooling relies on fast-acting valves to regulate coolant flow and protect servers from overheating. Yet across server racks operating 24/7, the cumulative energy demand of continuously energised solenoid valves presents cost and sustainability challenges. However, Kick & Drop coil technology offers a solution to this inefficiency by using a high-power ‘kick’ to actuate the valve, followed by a low-energy ‘drop’ to hold position. The design can...

Re-shaping the way data centres secure and manage power

Drew Gravitt is Senior Director of Distributed Generation & Microgrid Sales at Mission Critical Group (MCG) explains how the demand for data centres is surging due to AI and digital services and how this is placing increasing strain on existing power infrastructure. With many data centre developers facing long wait times for grid connections, Drew goes on to discuss the ways in which distributed generation and microgrids can help address the ‘time-to-power’ problem.
