Piller UPS power protects Data Centres around the globe

Improving Data Centre Power Protection in the Age of AI

Piller Power Systems is addressing the power protection needs of all types of data centres—hyperscale, colocation, and enterprise—ensuring reliable performance from the grid to the rack, regardless of environment or load.

The rapid AI-driven evolution has led to unprecedented scales of total power capacity, increased power densities at the rack, and the adoption of liquid cooling technologies. These advancements necessitate clean, secure on-site power, hybrid microgrids, power conditioning, stabilisation, and high-performance, flexible UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) technology.

Our Solutions:

Smart M+ 500 Modular Static UPS
Piller’s latest innovation, the Smart M+ 500 Modular Static UPS, is the ideal technology for power protection in high-density environments. This system offers:

Modularity and Flexibility: The M+ 500 grows in 50kW increments, allowing for up to 500kW within a single square meter footprint. Its modular nature ensures scalability and adaptability to evolving power requirements.

Hot Swappable Design: Ensuring minimal downtime, the M+ 500’s hot swappable modules allow for maintenance and upgrades without interrupting power supply.

High Density and Efficiency: Designed for environments with high power densities, the M+ 500 offers superior efficiency and performance, making it particularly suitable for mechanical load protection, including liquid cooling systems.

By leveraging the M+ 500 Modular Static UPS, Piller addresses the demand for flexible, smart, and modular power protection solutions, ensuring data centre operators can meet the challenges of today’s AI-driven landscape.

New Scale

The next generation of data centres represent a step change in power capacity scale from 30MWs-300MWs of power at a single site.

Such data centres cannot solely rely on traditional grid power. Instead using alternative power technologies data centres will generate their own power, supplied across microgrids with advanced UPS, conditioning and stabilisation technologies capable of seamlessly transitioning between power sources, and ensuring uninterrupted operations.

There will be a growing need for microgrid implementations to ensure constant stable power provision by managing renewable sources and employing Hydrogen ready combustion engines – such as those from Bergen Engines, paired with Marelli Motori alternators. These engines start swiftly and maintain high efficiency even at part-load, minimising emissions and fuel consumption.

Piller UPS and IPCS (Integrated Power Conditioning and Stabilisation) technologies are vital components of Power Solutions Division’s Power of 10 solution on which new AI data centres can secure grid independent and sustainable power.

Even as data centres change to cope with the demands of the latest AI advances, Piller’s commitment to its customers remains its ability to provide decades of fundamental power protection and back up with unrivalled service over the long term.

Piller powers Wholesale Colocation Data Centres

Data centre developers and operators in IT Hosting and Colocation services provide independent, high availability, facilities where cost effective, trustworthy UPS systems are an essential part of their critical infrastructure.

Piller UPS systems can be scaled to suit changing lease commitments, operating at highly efficient levels with optimised capital investment for each stage of the organisation’s development. Space-saving, reduced maintenance battery-free solutions or battery based options can be accommodated within the same facility, providing a solution to meet every demand.

Piller powers large scale Enterprise Data Centres

For the world’s largest organisations a single enterprise data centre can scale to 40-50MW of capacity. Companies requiring the highest levels of power conditioning, back up and energy storage at scale in their enterprise data centres can rely on Piller technology.

Piller supplies, installs and maintains power infrastructure for some of the world’s most mission critical facilities. Piller works closely with enterprise customers providing data centre power infrastructure design, deployment, commissioning and support which deliver the highest levels of provision and protection.

Piller powers next generation Edge Data Centres

Edge computing data centres represent the next stage in the evolution of data access, processing, storage and security.

Edge data centre deployments are being used to manage Industrial IoT workloads in the manufacturing and process industry sectors; IoT use on road and rail infrastructure such as smart motorways, trackside and at train stations; In airport and seaport hubs; In Power generation and distribution; As part of 5G infrastructure in base stations and cell towers and on all telecoms networks; Throughout Smart Cites.

Piller Delivers Capital Savings, Low OPEX, and Maximised Energy Efficiency

The amount of data in use is expanding exponentially as the world is digitised through IoT, mobile and Cloud.

By 2025 the volume of information entering and leaving data centres for processing, storing and sharing will reach 175 Zettabytes [1 ZB = 1 trillion GBs] annually.

Handling this data will require 100’s of terawatt-hours of conditioned, reliable power for the trillions of daily digital interactions across the globe.

Piller offers a comprehensive package of services that can be tailored to client specific requirements: Technical consultation, Operator training, Functional testing, Maintenance, Fault analysis and troubleshooting, Customer training, Remote system diagnosis and support, 24/7/365 emergency call out.
