Recently, Zhong Yihua, Vice President of Shuangdeng Group Co., Ltd., stated in an interview that with the explosive growth of foundation models and AI technology, the power consumption per rack in AI data centers (AIDCs) has risen from the traditional 2–8 kW to 20–50 kW, and may exceed 100 kW in the future. It is estimated that in 2025, the energy consumption of AIDC will reach 77.7 TWh, a sixfold increase in five years. “High-density power supply, high-efficiency cooling, smaller footprint, and rapid deployment” have become the core requirements of AIDC, making energy storage technology upgrades urgent.

In response to the needs of different power supply architecture solutions for AIDC, Shuangdeng has proposed a series of “green power + energy storage” solutions, including the 220 kV “green power direct integration with generation-grid-load-storage” solution, 10 kV AC-side UPS power supply with energy storage, UPS 400 V low-voltage AC-side energy storage, Panama power supply application with energy storage, HVDC power supply with energy storage, and the future development trend SST-800 V DC energy storage. The aim is to improve energy utilization, reduce carbon emissions, and ensure power supply stability and reliability by optimizing the coordination between power sources, the grid, loads, and energy storage. This solution can not only provide emergency power support, but also enhance green power supply for AIDC and reduce fossil energy demand and carbon emissions through peak shaving and valley filling.

Shuangdeng has been deeply involved in the industry for many years, focusing on lithium batteries, sodium batteries, fuel cells, and solid-state batteries as its core technological breakthroughs. Relying on multiple solutions such as green power direct connection for data centers, immersion-protected lithium battery systems, new energy solutions, and intelligent lithium batteries, it has formed a technology matrix covering new energy storage and scenario-based applications—from batteries (cells) to system solutions to intelligent operation and maintenance energy management—meeting the diversified needs of different application scenarios. It has received honors such as National Manufacturing Single Champion, National Specialized and New “Little Giant” Enterprise, National Quality Benchmark Enterprise, National Intellectual Property Demonstration Enterprise, and National Green Factory.

Shuangdeng will continue to promote industrial upgrading through technological innovation, work with global partners to build a “green carbon ecosystem,” and enable new energy storage solutions to unleash green vitality in the era of intelligent storage.
