“With nickel-zinc you don’ t have to compromise”

Brandon Smith, Vice President of Global Sales and Product, ZincFive
Supporting this level of compute performance requires a different approach to electrical infrastructure – one capable of responding to both higher overall demand and far more dynamic power behaviour.
For ZincFive, this changing landscape reinforces the importance of immediate power solutions. The company works closely with UPS manufacturers, system integrators and infrastructure providers to integrate its nickel-zinc battery technology into modern power architectures, partnering with leading industry players such as ABB, Vertiv and others across the data-centre power ecosystem. But the industry itself is still learning how to adapt.
“ Right now, the entire sector is learning in real time,” Brandon says.“ We’ re seeing infrastructure evolve much faster than it has in the past as operators experiment with new architectures and power strategies.”
Over the next several years, those lessons will shape the next generation of data centre power systems.
“ AI changed the power profile,” Brandon says.“ But it didn’ t change the need for reliable back-up.” zincfive. com
