Ampace will exhibit its battery systems at the Data Center World Asia event at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, starting September 29, 2026. The firm will also conduct a joint presentation with Eaton to discuss modular infrastructure for high-demand AI workloads.
Why it matters
The shift toward dynamic AI processing requires battery systems capable of frequent load smoothing rather than traditional standby backup. This presentation aims to address the electrical and physical infrastructure challenges posed by evolving data center demands.
The PU100 model is engineered to support both Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) backup and AI load smoothing, an upgrade over standard standby-only systems. Performance is validated using simulated AI duty cycles and electronic-load testing.
The players
Ampace
A global energy storage firm providing lithium-ion battery solutions for industrial and data center applications.
Eaton
A multinational power management company specializing in electrical infrastructure for mission-critical facilities.
The details
Ampace will discuss PTU (Power Transmission Unit) architecture, focusing on how modular battery arrays integrate with data center physical layouts. Unlike traditional systems that remain dormant until a power failure, these units utilize battery cycling to stabilize the intense, variable power draws associated with modern AI compute clusters. The presentation with Eaton will specifically detail the physical and electrical integration required for these high-frequency workloads.
Timeline
September 29-30, 2026: Data Center World Asia exhibition at Marina Bay Sands.
September 29, 2026: Joint presentation with Eaton regarding AI data center power stabilization.
The Tech Race
This development follows industry efforts to move beyond the Open Compute Project hardware power specifications toward more agile, load-smoothing infrastructure. Ampace is competing to integrate its storage stack into the modular architecture increasingly favored by modern data center operators.
Operators in the Asia Pacific region will gain insight into the viability of the PU100 and PU200 models for enterprise deployment. No specific pricing or general availability dates for these units were announced at this time.
The takeaway
Data center operators should track how modular battery cycling performs against traditional UPS standards during peak AI usage. The joint technical session on September 29, 2026, will provide the first detailed overview of the proposed architecture.
