Remote Power Panel Market Dynamics
Driver: Adoption of digital technologies in IT sector
The IT sector is rapidly growing owing to massive digitalization drive. There is an increasing adoption of cloud storage solutions to prevent data losses and ensure automatic data backups. The requirement for robust data centers is increasing with rapid advancements in the IT sector and the growing preference for digital technologies and cloud services. Investments toward digitalization are also creating multiple opportunities for data center investments. Such efforts are anticipated to drive the demand for RPPs as they provide a critical layer of redundancy and failover protection, help optimize power usage and reduce energy costs, and enable IT administrators to manage power usage from anywhere in the world.
Restraint: Technological advancements in power distribution systems will reduce the usage of RPPs
Nowadays, different power distribution structural designs using overhead busway distribution systems are increasingly being incorporated in data centers for power distribution, owing to their multiple benefits. Originally power distribution in data centers was followed as a standard industrial practice, wherein main power distribution units (PDUs) branch out to smaller remote power panels (RPPs) that feed power whips to racks. The replacement rate of components at the rack for power distribution requirements is high, which forces electricians to use new whips all the time, even when they are excessively heated. If a raised floor space is not available, then the installation cost of power whips can be higher, as they must be installed on a dedicated cable ladder/tray. This is reducing the need of PDUs and RPPs for power distribution.
Opportunities: Huge investments, along with enforcement of stringent standards, to reduce carbon footprint in data centers
Data centers are intense consumers of water and electricity and are responsible for significant carbon emissions. These developments give investors opportunities to secure data centers with carbon-free energy supplies. Measurement and monitoring of data center energy consumption is also gaining traction to enhance achieving sustainability goals. Rack PDUs, PDUs, bus drops, busway end feeds, remote power panels, UPS, and building meters help monitor power consumption and improve energy efficiency. RPPs allow data center operators to remotely monitor and manage power usage, enabling them to identify areas where energy is being wasted and make adjustments to reduce energy consumption. By using remote power panels to optimize energy usage, data centers can reduce their carbon emissions and environmental impact. This is particularly important as the demand for data storage and processing continues to grow and data centers become an increasingly important part of the global technology infrastructure.
Challenges: Entry barriers due to difficulty in complying with complex standards
Remote power panel vendors must comply with government regulations applicable for data center power equipment. Data centers must consume power according to the regulations provided by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization, the American National Standards Institute/Building Industry Consulting Services International (ANSI/BICSI). This has hindered the growth of the data center power market as most of the vendors prefer to consume power based on the requirement of data centers. New market entrants face difficulties in receiving accreditation while conforming to these standards.
