800 VDC data centre architecture: solid-state transformers and new power supply solutions
Schneider Electric has published an analysis of 800 VDC architecture for AI data centres, while Siemens is working with Reinhausen on a solid-state transformer. Meanwhile, GE Vernova has presented a medium-voltage UPS for stable power supply to data centres and factories.
Who is affected and how
- engineer
- 800 VDC and the solid-state transformer bring new design standards and component requirements, which should be built into the specifications of upcoming projects.
- energy specialist
- Medium-voltage UPS and DC distribution are changing the connection and protection concept.
- supplier
- Transformer and power-supply manufacturers need to plan product development to serve racks with higher power density.
