In September 2023, C&D's Erick Soares and special guest Carrie Goetz presented a 24-minute DCD Talk on the Critical Power Channel with Stephen Worn, "ROI and TCO Considerations for Selecting Batteries." This panel of experts explored the decision factors necessary when choosing the right battery chemistry and technology for your data center.

Watch the video to learn about disrupters and trends in the data center marketplace, battery lifecycle management, safety, downtime, ROI and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) considerations, while keeping in mind ESG and the ecosystem environment.

Extending battery life in backup systems

"How long do stationary batteries last?" Eric Lehmann, Director of Quality Services, answers this common question and explains how C&D Technologies tests batteries to ensure a long service life.

3 Reasons Why Pure Lead Plus Data Center Batteries Perform Longer

From the inside out, Pure Lead Plus batteries are designed to give you long-lasting performance. We started with an advanced grid design that channels energy more efficiently, resulting in low corrosion and low internal resistance. Then we added a patented paste process that further reduces corrosion, giving each battery up to 40% more life. The third is the easiest to actually see: our True Front Access® design makes installation and maintenance much easier.
