Data Centers: Powering AI's Future: Efficient, Scalable, More Sustainable
The data center industry faces a pivotal challenge as power availability is becoming a critical constraint on growth just as AI and high-density computing drive unprecedented demand. AI applications are pushing rack densities from traditional 5-10kW to 50kW per rack [15] , while utilities in key markets report they cannot meet projected data center power demands beyond 2025. This convergence of increasing power density requirements and grid capacity limitations creates an urgent need for more efficient power architectures. FMP addresses this dual challenge by fundamentally rethinking data center power distribution. By enabling efficient DC power delivery and eliminating multiple conversion stages, FMP helps organizations maximize the utility of available power while providing a scalable foundation for future high-density deployments. This efficiency gain becomes critical as Goldman Sachs Research [16] projects AI workloads will drive an additional 200 terawatt-hours per year of data center power consumption between 2023 and 2030.
