Vertiv Launches High-Power Lithium Battery Cabinets

Vertiv, a leading provider of digital infrastructure solutions, has introduced the Vertiv™ EnergyCore battery cabinets. They are designed to address the growing demand for high-density computing in increasingly crowded data centers. These cabinets are factory-assembled with LFP [Lithium-Iron-Phosphate] battery modules and feature Vertiv’s internally-powered battery management system [BMS]. Making them compatible with most current and legacy three-phase Vertiv™ uninterruptible power supply [UPS] systems. This includes the newly launched Vertiv™ Trinergy™.

Key features of the Vertiv EnergyCore battery cabinets:
  • Optimized runtime. Each 24-inch [600mm] wide cabinet is optimized to provide five minutes of end-of-life runtime at 263kW.
  • Space-saving: The cabinets are compact and lightweight compared to VRLA batteries, allowing for fewer deployments in high-density environments.
  • Streamlined installation. Features such as an internal two-hole lug. This eliminates the need for a conduit box, and no requirement for external control wiring reduce setup time and costs.
  • Interactive control. Equipped with an intuitive touch screen HMI display that provides real-time visibility and control over the cabinet, system, and batteries.

The Vertiv EnergyCore batteries power the integrated BMS, simplifying installation by eliminating the need for external power. It tracks battery performance throughout its lifecycle, enabling state-of-health reports, warranty support, and predictive analytics. Additionally, remote battery monitoring is available through Vertiv™ Alber™ Battery Xplorer Enterprise.

Milind Paranjape, vice president of energy storage at Vertiv, highlighted the importance of these solutions in addressing the increased power demand driven by AI and high-performance computing applications. Which require compact, high-powered energy storage capable of operating in smaller, hotter spaces.

Further, the modular design of the Vertiv™ Trinergy™ UPS enables seamless integration with Vertiv EnergyCore battery cabinets, offering distributed architecture for uninterrupted critical applications. The high power density of the EnergyCore design allows just two battery cabinets to support each 500kW Trinergy™ UPS core, unlike the three typically required by most suppliers.

Vertiv EnergyCore complies with UL 9540A standards and is UL 1973 listed, protecting against thermal runaway fire propagation. This compliance allows waiving the spacing requirements between racks under NFPA 855 guidelines, saving space and speeding up deployment.
