C&D, in collaboration with DCD, will be conducting a series of educational presentations at three upcoming DCD events this fall. The series will explain how to best select UPS power backup batteries to meet corporate sustainability initiatives and financial goals.

The series, titled, "Strategic Energy: How the Proper Battery Choice Can Balance Costs and Drive ESG Goals," will be presented by Erick Soares, Director of Product Management - Stationary, and Matias Fagnilli, VP Sales for Latin America, at DCD > Connect events in London, Cancun, and São Paulo.  

Role of Batteries in Sustainability 

Soares and Fagnilli will explain the importance of selecting the right battery technology—specifically lead-acid batteries. The right UPS backup batteries effectively balance operational costs while supporting environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals. Data center professionals who attend the webinar will learn about: 

  • Sustainability and the role batteries play in achieving long-term energy and environmental goals. Factors such as how batteries are made and recycled will be presented. 

  • How to approach cost efficiency in UPS power backup systems, including evaluating total cost of ownership (TCO). 

  • The benefits of lead acid batteries, such as C&D’s Pure Lead AGM (VRLA) batteries, for data center backup. 

Three Locations Worldwide 

The presentations will be given during three DCD > Connect Events in Europe and the Americas:
