The Road Ahead Where Power meets Possibility
As we look at the rapidly evolving landscape of power demands across industries, particularly the unprecedented surge in data center power requirements driven by AI, the need for innovative power distribution solutions has never been more critical. Fault Managed Power as more than just a new technology – it represents a fundamental shift in how organizations can approach their power distribution challenges while tackling increasingly urgent sustainability goals. Customers across industries face unprecedented power challenges – from data centers confronting AI-driven demands projected to exceed 8% of total US power by 2030 [17] , to smart buildings requiring increased electricity for automation and EV charging, to telecommunications sites needing up to 2000W per 5G installation. FMP delivers efficient, DC power over longer distances while simplifying infrastructure requirements through its active fault management capabilities. This technology enables direct integration with renewable energy sources and microgrids, providing a crucial pathway to more sustainable operations as utilities face mounting power delivery challenges. At Cisco, we're committed to helping our customers navigate these challenges by delivering comprehensive solutions that combine FMP with our established networking expertise. The journey toward more efficient, sustainable, and resilient power infrastructure is just beginning, and we're excited to help lead the way. "The mission of the FMP Alliance is to drive the global transition to Fault Managed Power systems that prioritize safety, reliability, efficiency, and environmental sustainability."
