AI Computing Expansion Fuels Demand for Next-Gen Data Center Power

Server power density is rising fast, and computing loads are constantly changing. Data centers now need more than just backup power — they require stable delivery, ultra-fast response, and efficient energy management.

Richard Liang, Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer of Sunwoda, told CCTV Finance: "We are experiencing the third energy revolution, defined by lower-carbon energy production, intelligent energy management, and increasingly electrified consumption. Energy storage sits at the intersection of all three." He identified AIDC backup power as a critical growth area, noting that "AI computing ultimately runs on power." Safety and intelligent energy management are now must-haves for next-gen data center energy systems, with batteries expanding from emergency backup to load response, power smoothing, and full energy management.

Sunwoda has developed a dedicated AIDC solution with a highly integrated, modular design. Each cabinet can deliver up to 760 kW, reducing equipment footprint and lowering total cost of ownership.

The system supports 5C pulse charging and 10C high-power discharging, responding almost instantly to changes in AI computing loads. It runs on Sunwoda's proprietary 6C and 10C high-rate lithium-ion cells and an 800V high-voltage platform. Prefabricated design minimizes onsite integration and speeds up project timelines. The company is also advancing an integrated "backup power plus energy storage" model to cover a wider range of power and energy management needs.
