As global data centre power demand continues to rise, driven by sectors like artificial intelligence (AI) and cryptocurrencies, the International Energy Agency (IEA) projects that by 2026, demand could double, reaching 1,000 terawatt-hours (TWh)—roughly equivalent to Japan’s total yearly electricity consumption today1. With this growing demand, data centres face mounting pressure to improve backup power systems to ensure operational continuity.
EnerSys technology addresses these challenges by embedding monitoring technology directly into lead-acid batteries. The technology tracks key battery parameters such as voltage and temperature, enabling data centre operators to perform proactive maintenance and reduce battery related downtime. It also integrates with the EnVision™ Connect system monitor, offering data-driven insights for better performance and operational control.
"We’re proud to be at the forefront of transforming backup power management for data centres," said Paul Willougby, Director, Data Centre EMEA at EnerSys. "As data centre power requirements grow, our technology offers operators enhanced visibility and control, ultimately improving reliability and reducing maintenance costs. The integration of embedded intelligence within the battery system is a game-changer for ensuring operational continuity in high-demand environments."
A European data centre recently deployed 260 DataSafe® batteries with the embedded technology ahead of a major international sporting event to enhance backup power monitoring. By integrating this technology with the EnVision™ Connect system monitor, the data centre was able to achieve more frequent battery status updates, reducing blind spots and improving its ability to proactively address issues. This integration also led to a reduction in emergency maintenance interventions, helping lower costs while improving compliance with power resilience requirements. Additionally, the data centre gained better operational control, which helped reduce risks associated with backup power failure.
This deployment highlights how EnerSys’ technology, in conjunction with the EnVision™ Connect system monitor, is setting a new benchmark for data centre backup power monitoring, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and operational security.
