AUSTIN, TX — (Marketwire) — 03/12/12 — To increase efficiencies and resiliency and improve power usage effectiveness (PUE) in the IT environment, enterprises should consider a 415 volt power design as opposed to the North America standard 480 volt. More common in Europe, the 415 volt design approach helps reduce efficiency losses as it eliminates voltage transformation at the power distribution unit level.
Martin Olsen, vice president and general manager for Active Power (NASDAQ: ACPW), will lead a discussion at AFCOM Data Center World (March 18-22, 2012, Las Vegas) on the pros and cons of a 415 volt design and present a real customer case study that leveraged this forward thinking approach. Along with this power design, the customer selected a high efficiency UPS system to maximize the data center-s performance and economic benefits even more.

Active Power will showcase a demonstration unit of its high efficiency CleanSource UPS (uninterruptible power supply) system at its booth (#413), providing attendees an inside look into the patented solution that integrates flywheel energy storage with UPS electronics.
In addition, a model of Active Power-s PowerHouse system will be on display in the company-s booth. The industry award winning continuous power solution is prebuilt and factory tested and flexible enough to support a conventional brick and mortar facility, a more modular design approach, or a set of containerized data centers. With CleanSource UPS at its core, PowerHouse offers leading energy and space efficiencies and lower capital and operating costs versus a conventional build.
