Nvidia 800 VDC power rollout for 1 megawatt server racks to be supported by ABB — company says collaboration will create 'new power solutions for future gigawatt-scale data centers '
ABB has partnered with Nvidia to support the rollout of 800 VDC power architecture for 1 megawatt server racks, aiming to power future gigawatt-scale data centers efficiently. This move allows for significant efficiency improvements and cost savings, with Nvidia embracing the standard to enhance power delivery in AI data centers. By increasing voltage to 800 V and converting to DC at the power room, the need for bulky equipment and multiple step-downs is reduced, leading to potential power savings on a global scale if all data centers adopt the 800 VDC standard.
