The Power Advantage

The Rise of AI is Straining Data Center Power Systems We’re all familiar with how artificial intelligence is reshaping the current and future technology landscape.  At exponential Power, we’re particularly attuned to the challenges AI is posing to data centers, many of which are grappling with an unprecedented power crunch.…

Data centers are the backbone of modern digital infrastructure. Ensuring uninterrupted service during power disruptions requires proactive planning and robust systems. Backup battery systems are central to this effort, providing a critical bridge between utility power loss and generator startup. Here are actionable steps to maintain uptime and confidence in…

Rural telecommunications providers face new challenges with government programs like the Secure and Trusted Communications Networks Reimbursement Program (commonly called “Rip & Replace”) and the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program. These initiatives aim to enhance network security and expand broadband access. However, they come with complex requirements and…

Year-end preventative maintenance plays a key role in maintaining reliable backup power systems across industries like data centers, telecommunications, manufacturing, industrial facilities, and motive power applications. These industries rely on uninterrupted power to protect operations, safety, and critical infrastructure. Regular testing provides confidence that your systems are ready when a…

If you’re considering extending the lease on your forklift, it’s essential to think about how you’ll keep your batteries running effectively during that period. Motive power batteries are the backbone of material handling equipment like forklifts and pallet jacks, but as they age, their performance can degrade. An extended lease…

The term “maintenance-free” has been around for a long time, primarily used by the automotive industry to highlight the convenience of batteries that don’t require water refills. In automotive applications, this makes sense. But when it comes to industrial stationary battery systems, like those used in data centers, utilities, oil…

You juggle many roles: strategist, efficiency expert, and the one responsible for keeping your industrial equipment—from forklifts to pallet jacks—charged and ready to go. Downtime is the last thing you want, as it leads to lost productivity, frustrated employees, and a direct hit to your bottom line. The key to…

Batteries play an integral role in the systems that power the world around us. From keeping communication networks running to providing essential backup power in critical infrastructure, they ensure that power is available when it’s needed most. Among the most common types are lead-acid (LA) and nickel-cadmium (NiCd) batteries, which…

For fleet managers overseeing material handling equipment such as forklifts and pallet jacks, one of the most critical factors in maintaining operational efficiency is the proper charging and conditioning of motive power batteries. The right charger can not only extend battery life but also enhance the overall performance of your…

Big changes could be coming to the telecom industry, and if you’re a rural telecom provider, these changes could have a direct impact on your business. Congress has recently proposed new funding to support the “Rip and Replace” program, an initiative designed to replace Chinese-made telecom equipment with American-made alternatives.…
