Low-Voltage DC Power Distribution for Data Center Infrastructure
This Open Compute Project white paper examines low-voltage DC (LVDC) power-distribution architectures for data centers amid rapid growth in AI workloads and rack power density. It compares staged pathways from conventional AC power to DC distribution, covering power-conversion boundaries, grounding, protection, energy storage, reliability, and grid interaction. Rather than prescribing a single topology, the document establishes a technical framework for data center operators, designers, manufacturers, utilities, and regulators.
