Demand for data in India is soaring and hence the number of data centers are increasing manifolds. The new hyperscale facilities are much more power hungry and designed with tier IV levels of uptime assurance. Unfortunately, the grid power in the country has not been keeping pace in terms of the capacity, reliability and the quality of power supplied.
