Energy-saving systems in AI servers and Schneider Electric's vision in developing energy management solutions.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), by 2030, the electricity consumption of data centers worldwide could exceed 945 TWh, nearly double the current level. With the rapid development of AI models like ChatGPT, data centers are racing to stay ahead, but energy costs and operational pressures are increasingly reaching alarming levels.
Thermal design power (W) of popular chip lines in server systems is announced by NVIDIA, R100 series is estimated by Schneider Electric.
Chips with larger and more modern performance also require increasingly higher power consumption and cooling systems, with each generation being 30-75% higher than the previous generation. In this context, Schneider Electric, a global leader in energy management and automation, is emerging as a "pathfinder" by launching a series of new infrastructure solutions to help data centers become "AI-ready", maintaining performance and sustainability.
One of the outstanding solutions is the Galaxy VXL, an ultra-compact but extremely powerful uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system that takes up half the space of traditional systems, helping to solve the problem of “being both powerful and space-saving”, which is extremely important in increasingly crowded and expensive data centers. This system is expected to be introduced in Vietnam later this year.

With strategic vision and extensive collaboration with technology giant NVIDIA, Schneider Electric is redefining how infrastructure is built and operated for the digital age. The company supports the NVIDIA MGX architecture, which enables rapid development and deployment of modular, multi-generation server configurations for accelerated computing.
Schneider Electric has also been quick to embrace the trend of liquid cooling, a technology that is considered a savior for AI server clusters with extremely high computing density. The acquisition of Motivair, a pioneer in direct-to-chip cooling, has enabled the company to provide an entire ecosystem of cooling solutions from chip to system.
Schneider Electric is investing heavily in software and digital intelligence. Working with ETAP and NVIDIA, it has developed a digital twin that can simulate the entire energy consumption process from the grid to the AI chip in real time. This allows operators to predict and optimize energy efficiency.
In addition to data center reference designs, AVEVA (a Schneider Electric company) will integrate its digital twin platform with NVIDIA Omniverse, enabling designers, engineers, and stakeholders to work together seamlessly, accelerating the design and deployment of complex systems while reducing time to market and costs.
Schneider also advises on legacy data centers, with a variety of solutions to “revive” systems to meet AI needs without having to build from scratch.
