TD SYNNEX collaborates with Eaton for power products

TD SYNNEX Corporation is pleased to announce that it has entered into a partnership with Eaton Corporation, a global leader in intelligent power management, to launch power and energy management products from September 2025.

With the expansion of IT infrastructure, including generative AI, power consumption in IT infrastructure has tripled over the past 10 years.
Reviewing power efficiency and stabilizing power supply operation are essential for business continuity and growth.

In recent years, the scale of IT infrastructure, including data centers, has been expanding rapidly, and as a result, power consumption has been steadily increasing.

According to data based on public sources such as the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Organization for Cross-regional Coordination of Transmission Operators (OCCTO), electricity consumption by data centers in Japan is expected to increase by approximately 2.5 times between 2015 and 2025. In particular, from 2020 onwards, the full-scale use of AI and the large-scale expansion of data centers are factors that will drive up electricity demand.

Furthermore, according to data based on the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications’ “Information and Communications White Paper” and future forecasts by the Japan Science and Technology Agency, the power consumption of IT infrastructure owned by domestic companies is expected to nearly triple from approximately 3,000 GWh in 2015 to approximately 9,000 GWh in 2025.

Behind this is the fact that the scale of corporate IT infrastructure operations is increasing year by year with the spread of ICT devices and the expansion of cloud computing, making it imperative to continue reviewing power efficiency and saving energy.This rapid expansion in power demand has made it more essential than ever to introduce uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and optimal power distribution systems to stabilize server operation.

On the other hand, the increasing adoption of renewable energy and the effects of weather fluctuations have made the stability of the power supply more unstable than ever before. The risk of power outages and voltage fluctuations can lead to serious problems such as server downtime and data loss, with immeasurable impacts on business continuity planning (BCP).

Given this background, the introduction of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and power distribution systems, as well as the optimization, visualization, and automation of power consumption, are no longer just “options,” but “essential infrastructure for supporting business continuity and growth . ”

TD SYNNEX has partnered with Eaton, a global leader in intelligent power management, to further strengthen its proposal capabilities in the power and energy management field, building on the IT solutions expertise it has cultivated over many years. Going forward, the company will support the stable operation of customers’ systems and the realization of sustainable IT environments by providing more advanced power management solutions.
