These operators emphasize UPS systems' efficiency and their advancements as per industry demand and support the data center UPS market growth. At present, these operators invest heavily in this market as we see several new and upcoming projects.

KEY TRENDS

Adoption of Advanced UPS Batteries

• Advanced battery systems utilized in data centers are essential to guaranteeing uninterrupted power distribution during power loss. Even the best UPS systems are useless without a battery to buffer the power. When the battery gets discharged, disconnected, or dead, and the UPS loses incoming power, the entire system will shut down, underlining the importance of the right battery for each application.
• The three main batteries trending currently in the data center UPS market are Li-ion, Flywheel, and VRLA. VRLA has been supporting data centers for many years. At present, other types of batteries are in the race due to their reliable nature and focus on sustainability.
• Li-ion batteries are preferred over traditional VRLA batteries for many reasons, including the ones such as Li-ion batteries being lower in weight, more sustainable and planet-friendly, having a long-expected life, being safer, and having lower OPEX, among other relevant factors.
• ABB, Schneider Electric, Huawei Technologies, Eaton, and Vertiv, among many others, are some of the prominent battery providers in the data center UPS market that operate and have a significant presence in this market.

Adoption of DC UPS Systems to Mitigate Loss of Power

• Many data centers consume more than 2% of global power produced annually, which they can mitigate power wastage using energy-efficient power infrastructure.
• Most colocation providers worldwide are involved in the designing of OCP-ready data centers. These data centers are likely to include the deployment of DC power systems. Many enterprises also consider shifting to the data center design of hyperscale operators to reduce OPEX and improve operational efficiency. In terms of power wastage, UPS vendors invest in R&D activities to reduce the power wastage of UPS systems.
• Although most industrial applications are based on AC power, there is a growing paradigm shift, with an increasing number of data center operators considering implementing DC power for power distribution within data center facilities.
• Some energy is lost when power is switched between AC and DC in data centers. Fewer conversions ensure less heat is being lost, resulting in lower OPEX. DC power also takes up less space in a data center and is easier to integrate with other energy devices that generate DC power.
• Thus, most providers are involved in designing OCP-ready data centers, which include the deployment of DC power systems.

SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS

Data center developments across the planet ought to propel the demand for the global data center UPS market, as every facility needs a proper power-redundant infrastructure in place. Almost every year or so, new companies enter the market for building data centers. Hyperscale data center operators have a common habit of increasing their market presence with investments in cloud regions.

• After the rise of cloud and edge computing, the construction of data centers has increased, but data centers are introducing Li-ion batteries in their facilities, and currently, the trend toward sustainable batteries has witnessed a rise in 2024 in the data center UPS market.
• Data center operators have shifted the trend toward sustainable batteries such as Li-ion batteries, even though flywheel UPS and VRLA-based systems are readily available. The acceptability of these units is greater than that of standalone flywheel UPS units.
• Li-ion batteries are the most widely used form of energy storage in mobile phones. Almost all suppliers provide Li-ion-based UPS systems for data centers, supporting the expansion of the market.
• Earlier, the dominant technology in UPS systems was lead-acid batteries, which were used but had limitations such as shorter lifespan, longer recharge times, and larger physical size. They require excessive maintenance and have a lower energy density compared to newer technologies. But at present, Li-ion has gained momentum due to its higher energy density, longer lifespan, faster recharge times, and greater efficiency than lead batteries. This can also take up to 80% less space in the facilities.
• Nickel-zinc and sodium-ion are two emerging battery technologies currently evolving in the data center UPS market. The adoption of these batteries is expected to attract data center investors during the forecast period, potentially disrupting the market share of Li-ion and VRLA technologies.
• While the development of data centers primarily concentrates on prominent cities worldwide, the progress in Tier II and III cities is still in its early stages. The increased adoption of the latest technologies in smaller locations relatively distant from major urban centers gains momentum, particularly in deploying edge data centers. Tier I and II data center developments are declining quite rapidly worldwide. In contrast, the number of Tier III and IV data center facilities is on the rise, and it is quite common to find them almost anywhere on the planet.
