DATA CENTERS ON FIRE – Episode 8
Defining Battery Chemistry
What’s really happening inside the batteries powering modern data centers?
In this episode, hosted by Miguel Martinez (CCO, VID Firekill), we are joined by Riccardo Cerati (Global Business Development Director, VID Firekill), Eduardo Pina (General Manager, CSB Energy Technology EMEA), and Tong Xu (Vice President of Sales EMEA, CSB Energy Technology EMEA) to go beyond fire protection and into the heart of the technology itself — the batteries.
From 30 years of VRLA chemistry evolution to the rise of lithium-ion and the real safety implications of installing batteries inside server racks, this conversation brings together fire protection and battery manufacturing expertise for the first time.
Because understanding fire risk in a data center starts with understanding what’s powering it.
