5 Decision Factors: Choosing your Data Center Battery Bank
Data center expert Carrie Goetz identifies five key factors for consideration when designing facilities for effective, sustainable, and future-proof battery backup systems. In the white paper, 5 Decision Factors: Choosing your Data Center Battery Bank, she explains what to look for when configuring a battery room or an entire data center— and exactly why it matters.
Data centers built 5 years ago likely weren’t factoring in the increase in power required for some of today’s applications. Generative AI is a great example. If one designs for today’s loads, the room is limited to that configuration in perpetuity. Additional capacity will impact all power chain solutions including the UPS, batteries, and other increases.
Carrie Goetz, Principal/CTO, StrategITcomTechnologies like generative AI are driving unprecedented demands for safe and stable energy. Ms. Goetz outlines a path forward for data center managers to build efficiencies into (and downtime out of) backup power systems.
