ABB announced that it will design and install an advanced, dc power distribution system for green.ch, one of the top information and communications technology (ITC) service providers in Switzerland.
DC technology trims power conversion losses and is 10 to 20 percent more energy efficient than traditional ac technology for electrical distribution in data centers. DC systems are also less complex and require less space, reducing equipment, installation, real estate and maintenance costs, resulting in a saving on total facility costs of up to 30 percent.
