Mitsubishi Electric to Power Next-Generation AI Factories with 800 VDC Infrastructure

Mitsubishi Electric Power Products, Inc. (MEPPI), a leader in mission-critical power protection and energy storage, announces its support for the deployment of 800 VDC infrastructure in AI factories by leveraging its expertise in Direct Current (DC) power distribution technology.

Traditional 54 VDC in-rack architectures are not optimized for the megawatt-scale racks and tightly synchronized compute clusters that define modern AI factories. As demand scales, customers are looking for new paths to support next-generation GPU power distribution. 800 VDC is emerging as the new standard for these applications.

MEPPI will leverage the proven expertise of its parent corporation, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (MELCO) in DC power distribution technology, having previously tested and installed DC data center infrastructure in the United States.

MEPPI’s Critical Power Solutions Division (CPSD) is dedicated to minimizing downtime and delivering unparalleled reliability in power, cooling, and customer experience. Consistent with this mission, and through collaboration with NVIDIA, MEPPI CPSD is pursuing centralized rectifiers and DC-compatible energy storage systems to enable safe, efficient, and high performance 800 VDC power delivery for the world’s most demanding and specialized computing infrastructure.

“Our deep experience in critical power, power electronics, and energy storage systems positions us to help our customers achieve the highest levels of uptime and efficiency in their AI factories,” said John Campion, General Manager, at MEPPI CPSD. “To meet these needs, we are excited to develop technologies that support industry moves toward an 800 VDC power standard for AI infrastructure.”

As we advance toward 800 VDC and deepen our collaboration with NVIDIA, MEPPI will continue investing in R&D to deliver solutions that meet our customers’ most pressing needs - safety, reliability, and uptime at scale.
