• AI data centers face increasingly interconnected infrastructure risks that threaten operational continuity as power density rises, according to UL Solutions’ analysis.
• Industry road maps suggest rack power density could approach 1 MW by 2027-2028, up from approximately 10 kW in 2020.
• Air cooling struggles beyond approximately 25-30 kW per rack, driving adoption of liquid cooling that introduces leakage and material-compatibility risks.
• Component compliance alone may not ensure system safety, making integrated infrastructure evaluation critical to reliability and avoiding costly redesigns or deployment delays.
