In Data Centers, choosing the right UPS battery is about much more than selecting a technology: it is about understanding its impact on the Total Cost of Ownership. This presentation explores how main lead-acid battery techno ologies influence lifetime costs through factors such as operating temperature, service life, power density, space requirements, maintenance and replacement cycles. By looking beyond initial investment, we will explore how different technologies can deliver very different long-term value. The key question is: which battery technology provides the best balance between reliability, performance and cost throughout the life of the Data Center? In this episode, we analyze the technologies available today for battery solutions. Join us to understand:

• The main technological differences between main lead-acid battery technologies;
• Parameters that have the greatest impact on service life;
• How technology, temperature, maintenance and energy density affect the Total Cost of Ownership;
• Why battery technologies should be compared over their entire lifecycle, rather than looking only on initial investment.
