Siemens, Nvidia, and Fluence develop reference electrical and power architecture for data centers running Vera Rubin NVL72 platform

Will cover the full electrical path of the data center
The rapid increase in AI compute demand, particularly for large language model training and inference, is making power consumption and electrical infrastructure a critical bottleneck for data center development.
This collaboration addresses a fundamental constraint by developing tailored electrical architectures for high-performance AI platforms, directly enabling the next generation of AI infrastructure.
Data center electrical designs will become more specialized and integrated with specific AI hardware platforms, moving beyond generic power distribution to optimized, high-density solutions.
