Samsung SDI to showcase next-gen battery tech for AI data centers at InterBattery Europe
Samsung SDI will look to capture global attention with a full-size uninterruptible power supply -- or UPS -- system made for artificial intelligence data centers at InterBattery Europe 2025 in Munich this week, as the battery-maker showcases a wide range of next-generation products, the company said Tuesday.
According to Samsung SDI, the UPS is equipped with its new battery, the U8A1, which boasts higher power output to reduce the required installation space by about 33 percent in comparison to previous models. As a UPS system is developed to supply emergency power to AI data centers during an outage, Samsung SDI highlighted that its UPS system presents itself as an optimized solution for AI data centers with high performance and maximum safety.
Samsung SDI will also showcase its SBB 1.5, energy storage system -- or ESS -- batteries installed in a 20-foot container featuring battery cells, modules, racks, safety devices and a ventilation system, at the exhibition. The company said the SBB 1.5 offers enhanced safety due to its Enhanced Direct Injection -- or EDI -- technology that can extinguish fires in the modules.
The Korean battery-maker plans to highlight the competitiveness of its prismatic batteries tailored to suit electric vehicles and ESS. Along with that, the company will emphasize its advanced safety technology called "No Thermal Propagation," which prevents heat from proliferating between cells by using multiple integrated safety devices.
“At InterBattery Europe 2025, Samsung SDI will showcase innovative and safety-enhanced products, including next-generation batteries optimized for the AI era,” said a Samsung SDI official. “The company will continue to lead the market with advanced battery technologies.”
Marking its third edition, InterBattery Europe 2025 will run from Wednesday to Friday at Messe Munich.
