Schneider Electric is also the world leader in smart bypass mode, and its underlying support technology, E-Transform ™ mode, has been fully deployed in the Galaxy V series since 2014. E-transform mode integrates the advantages of online dual transform and ECO mode, while continuing the stability and reliability of the former, taking into account the energy saving and efficiency of the latter, and elevating the availability to a higher level. In Schneider Electric E-transform mode, the inverter and bypass are in parallel, even if the bypass mains is interrupted, it can realize 0ms switching, and 100% of the load is continuously powered by the inverter. The “light load” work of the components can effectively extend the life cycle, thereby reducing the overall failure rate. In E-transform mode, the UPS efficiency is up to 99%, while supporting the optimization of input harmonic current and power factor and input three-phase load balance, while reducing the total life cycle cost, and better compatibility with the grid. Today, the factory default Settings of Schneider Electric’s Galaxy V series UPS have all adopted the E-transform mode, which all demonstrates Schneider Electric’s high recognition at the technical level and full confidence in the market development.

In addition, in vigorously developing new quality productivity and implementing the “double carbon” goal, the distributed energy system as an important component of the new power system and the key carrier to achieve the “double carbon” goal, its importance has become increasingly prominent. To achieve sustainable development, data centers need to reduce energy costs, make full use of stranded assets, reduce dependence on diesel generators, and maintain business resilience independent of the grid.
The application of distributed energy technologies, such as batteries and fuel cells, has given new possibilities to improve the reliability and resilience of UPS systems. The energy storage system can release the stored energy during the peak of power consumption, realize the load load, and profit by cutting the peak and filling the valley, reduce the power cost of the data center, and realize the energy cost optimization. At the same time, participate in the demand response of the power grid to achieve income generation.
Shi Baochun said: “With the promotion of the dual carbon goal, China has made great progress in new energy, energy storage, electric vehicles, etc., provinces are also reforming the grid billing, and the further improvement of the peak and valley price differential mechanism has stimulated the demand for lithium energy storage systems.” In actual operation, users gradually realize that more than 90% of the battery capacity and cycle life of the 15-1-hour lead-acid battery configured by the traditional UPS has not been fully utilized and is in a idle and stranded state. The reserve integrated UPS system scheme, replacing lead-acid batteries with energy-storage lithium batteries, reducing the cost of idle battery capacity by using the peaking and valley electricity price difference, and mining the economic benefits of stranded resources will become a major direction of UPS evolution in the future.”
CACR-SR30BE12G-E With the comprehensive popularization and increasing application scope of AIGC, UPS is also continuing to release innovation momentum and create more possibilities for industrial development. For a long time, Schneider Electric has been guided by the market and customer needs, and is committed to providing customers with innovative solutions. Based on the strengthened construction of the “China Center” strategy, Schneider Electric continues to deepen the research and development and innovation capabilities of key power supply businesses, and enables the construction of future-oriented digital infrastructure in an all-round way according to customer needs and pain points in various scenarios.
There is no doubt that, like the AIGC market, UPS has great prospects for innovation and development. In the future, Schneider Electric will give full play to the influence of industry leaders, driven by innovation, to build a more efficient, more resilient, more applicable and more sustainable intelligent computing infrastructure, and build a “backup defense line” for the surging computing power in the digital world.
