According to the Uptime Institute, 70% of outages cost more than $100,000, and just one minute of downtime represents an average loss of $9,000.

Rapidly growing energy demand

Data centers already account for 3–4% of global electricity consumption. With the rise of cloud computing and artificial intelligence, this share is expected to double by 2030, making power reliability and energy efficiency more strategic than ever.
