The AI Data Center Boom: Powering the Next Digital Frontier
The unprecedented demand for Artificial Intelligence is driving a data center build-out of historic proportions. This revolution runs on one thing: massive, reliable electrical power. Conversions Tech delivers the critical components that make it possible.
The Data Center Gold Rush
We are in the midst of a global data center construction boom, fueled by generative AI, cloud computing, and the exponential growth of data. Unlike traditional data centers, modern AI facilities are built around high-density clusters of GPUs (Graphics Processing Units), which consume exponentially more power per square foot.
The outlook is clear: demand for power is outpacing supply, and the electrical infrastructure *inside* the data center is more critical than ever. The focus has shifted from simple capacity to extreme power density, liquid cooling, and 100% uptime.
Driven by High-Density AI & GPU Clusters
The Gigawatt Challenge: Unprecedented Electrical Need
A single AI data center campus can now require over a gigawatt of power—enough to power a major city. This immense electrical load must be delivered with perfect reliability. The electrical distribution system is the facility's lifeblood, starting from the utility substation and moving through massive switchgear, busways, and Power Distribution Units (PDUs) to the individual server racks.
Power density in AI racks can exceed 100kW per rack, compared to 10-15kW in traditional facilities. This requires heavy-gauge cabling, robust connectors, and flawless terminations. There is zero margin for error; a single failed component can cost millions.
100kW+ Per Rack & Zero Margin for Error
