Data center power infrastructure refers to the systems and technologies that manage, distribute, and optimize power within data centers. They matter because as cloud computing, AI workloads, 5G networks, and hyperscale facilities expand, the need for highly efficient, scalable, and sustainable power infrastructure becomes mission critical. Without advanced power solutions, modern data centers cannot ensure uptime, energy efficiency, or cost-effectiveness.
According to BIS Research, data center power infrastructure market was valued at $18,928.3 million in 2024 and expected to reach $101,901.4 million by 2035 at a CAGR of 15.90%.
Key Drivers:
