Scope of Work
The project involved involved developing a hyperscale site in Northern Virginia, where Cummings Electrical was tasked with manufacturing 64 modular power units critical for high-performance operations. Each unit was required to meet specific energy requirements, incorporating advanced power management systems and efficient cooling solutions to support the demanding needs of the site.
Challenges & Solutions
One major challenge was meeting the client’s high-performance requirements while adhering to size and weight constraints. This necessitated a compact modular design without sacrificing efficiency. Additionally, ensuring quality assurance through rigorous testing was essential, alongside developing effective cooling solutions to manage thermal output.
To address these challenges, we developed 64 modular power units equipped with a 1.5MW UPS system using NiZN batteries for backup and an advanced switchboard for distribution. In collaboration with a joint venture partner, they created a proprietary cooling system that optimized module size and heat management. Each unit underwent rigorous quality assurance to meet strict standards, measuring 42 by 12 by 11.5 feet and weighing 63,000 pounds, effectively balancing compact design and high capacity for complex project needs.
Results
Cummings Electrical successfully delivered a reliable and scalable power infrastructure tailored to the client's needs through meticulous planning, innovative design solutions, and a commitment to quality.
