Delta Electronics has introduced an AI modular data centre featuring an 800 VDC in-row power system designed to support NVIDIA's Vera Rubin architecture, alongside a separate microgrid offering aimed at powering AI facilities across Southeast Asia. The announcement underscores a broader shift among data centre suppliers toward delivering fully integrated infrastructure packages that combine power conversion, cooling, battery backup and on-site generation rather than isolated components.
The modular system integrates prefabricated data centre infrastructure with liquid cooling and a direct current power architecture tailored for high-density AI computing deployments. Delta said the design is intended to accelerate deployment and expansion as operators across the region confront rapidly rising demand for computing capacity. The 800 VDC in-row architecture delivers 660kW of output power, achieves up to 98% AC-DC efficiency and provides 480kW of battery backup capacity. The system also employs aluminium capacitors in a design engineered to support GPU workloads in next-generation AI data centres.
Alongside the modular data centre, Delta outlined a microgrid system that combines renewable energy, energy storage, solid oxide fuel cell systems and solid state transformers. The solid state transformer is designed to convert medium-voltage electricity directly to 800 VDC, while the microgrid can coordinate multiple energy sources in real time to maintain uptime and power quality during grid connection delays or off-grid operation. The fuel cell system provides around-the-clock on-site power. Delta said the prefabricated DC-coupled architecture reduces conversion stages and allows the system to respond to fluctuating AI loads while supporting larger deployments.
The launch comes as Singapore and the wider Southeast Asia market attract growing investment in AI infrastructure, with data centre operators under pressure to add capacity quickly and accommodate significantly higher rack densities than in previous deployment cycles. Delta is positioning its offering around that shift. The company also highlighted a prefabricated AI containerised data centre product capable of delivering up to 60kW per rack of AI compute within the footprint of a single parking space, featuring an integrated liquid-to-air coolant distribution unit system and achieving a power usage effectiveness rating as low as 1.19. At the board level, Delta disclosed a thermal management product designed for NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, with a cold plate that uses a microchannel and multi-impinging flow design.
Jason Yuan, President of Southeast Asia & ANZ at Delta Electronics, said the demands created by AI are forcing a rethink in infrastructure planning. "AI workloads are scaling faster than most data centres were designed to handle, while their demands can be increasingly unpredictable. This means infrastructure planning must move from reactive to integrated and future-ready," he said. He added that the company's AI Modular Data Centres and Microgrids, both part of its Grid-to-Chip Solutions portfolio, are well suited to help clients across Southeast Asia deploy and power future-ready AI data centres, with solutions engineered for energy efficiency, reliability and performance while providing the flexibility to adapt to changing workloads and infrastructure demands.
The broader push reflects how vendors are increasingly presenting complete systems rather than focusing solely on servers and racks. That trend is particularly visible in AI deployments, where high-density clusters create heavier and less predictable electricity and cooling loads. In Southeast Asia, those pressures are colliding with grid constraints, land limits and rising scrutiny over the energy use of digital infrastructure.
