Analyst Viewpoint:
Power has become the first constraint on digital growth, and data center power is moving from a supporting utility to the part of the facility that decides when and where capacity can be built. Racks that once drew a few kilowatts are heading toward the megawatt range, and operators that wait for grid connections are finding that equipment and utility lead times, not land or chips, set their schedule. The next decade is likely to be won by whoever turns power into a deliverable product. Conventional UPS, switchgear, busway and backup generation will keep absorbing most near-term spending as new capacity comes online, but the more important change is architectural: onsite generation and battery storage will let a campus run with or without a full grid connection, and higher-voltage direct current distribution with solid-state conversion should follow as rack power keeps rising. Suppliers that can deliver complete, factory-built power systems with firm capacity commitments will gain over those selling single components, and service offerings such as monitoring, maintenance and energy management will grow as every megawatt becomes more valuable. The risks are slow permitting, transformer and switchgear shortages and unsettled standards for high-voltage direct current, but these are scheduling and standardization issues that investment and industry cooperation are already addressing. The outlook is clear: as AI workloads scale, the operators that secure reliable, efficient and fast-to-deploy power will lead the market. To realize the full techno-commercial potential of data center power, close collaboration between utilities, equipment makers, operators, regulators and standards bodies will be essential.
Data Center Power Market Overview:
Data center power covers the equipment and services that deliver, condition, back up and manage electricity inside a data center, including uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, power distribution units, switchgear, busways, generators, batteries and the software and services that monitor and maintain them. It is also increasingly linked to power generated or stored onsite, such as gas generators and battery storage.
By component, solutions lead followed by services; within solutions, UPS leads with an estimated 27.0% share, followed by switchgear & switchboards, generators, PDUs, busway, BESS and others. By data center type, hyperscale leads with a 39.9% share, ahead of colocation, enterprise and edge facilities. By region, North America leads with a 37.9% share, followed by Europe with about 32.6% and Asia Pacific with about 21.9%, while Latin America and Middle East & Africa together hold about 7.6%. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region.
The main trend in this market is the shift from backup-focused designs to power systems built for AI, with higher rack density, onsite generation and storage, and higher-voltage distribution.

| Higher Rack Density and the Shift to Onsite Power and New Power Architectures |
Rising Electricity Demand from AI-Led Data Center Expansion and Grid Constraints
Public agencies show the scale of the change. In 2025, the International Energy Agency estimated consumption of around 485 TWh of electricity by data centers across the world and projects almost 950 TWh of usage in 2030, with hyper-scale capital expenditure greater than $400 billion in 2025. In the United States, the Department of Energy and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory report that data centers used 176 TWh, or 4.4% of national electricity, in 2023 and project 6.7% to 12% by 2028.
The pressure on local grids is already visible. Ireland’s Central Statistics Office reports that data centers consumed 6,969 GWh in 2024, which was 22% of all metered electricity in the country and 10% more than a year earlier. The IEA also notes that transformer supply is tight, so connection delays are becoming a limit on new capacity.
Because each added gigawatt of load needs matching substations, switchgear, UPS and backup systems, grid constraints raise the value of every power product that shortens construction time or secures supply.

Higher Rack Density and the Shift to Onsite Power and New Power Architectures
Rack power is the starting point. According to industry stats, more than 80% of operators still run racks below 30 kW and only 9% have racks above 50 kW, with average density at 7.5 kW against 6.8 kW a year earlier, yet AI racks reported by IEEE Spectrum are approaching 1 MW. The gap between the two shows how much power equipment will be replaced or added as AI capacity arrives.
Operators are responding with new designs and new sources of power. The IEA reports that onsite gas generation of 15 to 27 GW and battery storage of 20 to 25 GW are being planned to support data centers, and NVIDIA, working with Eaton, Schneider Electric, Vertiv, Delta and others, is promoting 800 V direct current distribution, which it says can cut copper needs by 45% and raise end-to-end efficiency by up to 5% versus 54 V systems, with full-scale sites targeted for 2027.
Together, onsite generation, storage and higher-voltage distribution widen what a data center operator buys beyond conventional UPS and switchgear, and open the market to new product categories.

Data Center Power Regional Market Outlook:
North America is the largest market, with a 37.9% share. The Department of Energy and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory expect data centers to take up to 12% of US electricity by 2028, and hyperscale campuses and onsite power plans are driving demand for large power systems.
Europe holds about a 32.6% share. Ireland, where data centers used 22% of metered electricity in 2024, shows how quickly grid capacity can become the main limit, and it supports demand for efficient, storage-ready power systems.
Asia Pacific holds about a 21.9% share and is expected to be the fastest-growing region, as new hyperscale and colocation capacity is added across China, India, Japan, Southeast Asia and Australia.
Latin America and Middle East & Africa together hold about 7.6%, from a smaller base, with growth linked to new cloud regions and hyperscale investment.
