Huawei wants your AI data centre to prop up the grid, not just drain it

Huawei Digital Power presented a solution for AI data centers that makes them a support for the power grid rather than a passive load. The package includes Taishan 1280 kVA UPS with 98% efficiency, Hengshan DC UPS supporting 270/400/800 V, PowerPOD 5.0, and the LUNA2000 system. The company proposes a 'tokens per watt' metric instead of PUE.

• Taishan UPS: 1280 kVA in one cabinet, 98% efficiency at double conversion
• Hengshan DC UPS — first software-defined platform at 270/400/800 V
• PowerPOD 5.0 cuts footprint by 40% and delivery from 7 to 3 days
• SenseTime improved tokens per watt by 80%
