Samsung SDI is showcasing battery solutions for artificial intelligence data centers at an exhibition in Singapore, including the first display of its cylindrical lithium iron phosphate battery.
The South Korean battery maker said Tuesday it is displaying a range of products at Data Centre World Asia 2026, one of Asia’s largest exhibitions covering the full data center ecosystem, from design and construction to operation and management. About 600 companies from around the world are participating in this year’s event, which runs through Wednesday.
Samsung SDI has organized its booth into four zones, featuring uninterruptible power supply, or UPS systems; battery backup units, or BBUs; Samsung Battery Boxes, or SBBs; and its battery cell line-up.
In the UPS zone, the company unveiled a solution that recently became the first in the world to meet all criteria in an indoor large-scale fire test conducted by global safety certification organization UL Solutions.
The BBU zone features cylindrical batteries optimized to provide emergency power for AI data centers, including high-power, high-capacity 21700 nickel-based batteries designed with bottom vents to improve safety.
Samsung SDI also unveiled its cylindrical LFP battery for the first time. The company said the battery uses its proprietary structural technology to improve power output and capacity while strengthening safety.
The SBB zone features prismatic LFP batteries that will be used in SBB 2.0, Samsung SDI’s integrated energy storage system solution. The batteries combine Samsung SDI’s proprietary prismatic form factor with LFP chemistry to improve performance and safety.
During the exhibition, Samsung SDI plans to brief global customers on its technology development and expand marketing activities. The company will also participate in technical conferences to present its battery solutions.
“Building on our battery technologies that deliver enhanced performance and safety, Samsung SDI will continue to introduce differentiated solutions that address the diverse needs of data center customers,” a Samsung SDI official said.
