Single-phase UPS systems evolve at the edge
Li-ion chemistry and machine learning unlock new resiliencies
Li-ion chemistry and machine learning unlock new resiliencies
A monitoring system will typically display the battery status, and record any changes to resistance, temperature or voltage
With UPS-as-a-Reserve, data centers can be compensated either for not drawing power, or for offering capacity back to the grid
Here’s why static, double-conversion online UPSs use transformerless technology
Nearly all data centers use online UPS topologies, here’s why
UPS systems featuring Silicon Carbide transistors could save energy and negate risks associated with eco-mode
The role of UPS systems for total mains failure is well understood - however, UPSs also play an important part in protecting a critical load from all manner of other mains disturbances
The benefits of digital rotary UPS (DRUPS) systems may be overstated, because static systems are not standing still
Eco-mode saves power but increases the risks associated with a UPS. Silicon carbide could give the best of both worlds
You can get paid for your spare energy. Just be careful to understand what is possible
At last, high-performance Lithium-ion batteries can beat established flywheel technology to provide the features that a UPS needs
UPSs with the right topology, communications and software can contribute to a data center’s DCIM strategy
Data center availability standards are built around legacy technology. We need a framework that can include new thinking
The open-source hardware coming out of OCP is rewriting the rule book for data centers, says John Laban
The UK government tried to offer tax incentives for buying efficient UPS systems. The effort was doomed from the start
Innovative economy-mode technologies help save energy and improve system reliability while guaranteeing backup power in emergencies
Data centers don’t need a UPS any more - at least, that’s what Microsoft promised at the Open Compute Summit
