⚡ AI is changing the world – and its energy demand is growing just as fast. As artificial intelligence continues to scale, data centers are becoming one of the most energy-intensive infrastructures of our time. According to the International Energy Agency, the annual electricity demand of AI data centers is expected to more than double by 2030 and almost triple by 2035. For operators, this creates a clear challenge: They need a stable, efficient and highly reliable power supply – around the clock. This is where Miba technology comes in. Our plain bearings with advanced sputter technology are used in large gas engines that generate power directly on-site at data centers. As prime-power solutions, these engines run continuously under high speeds and permanent load – and Miba bearings help maximize efficiency while minimizing failures in 24/7 operation. They also play a key role in diesel generator sets used for backup power. In the event of a power outage, these systems must start within seconds and deliver full load immediately. What makes our sputter bearings with Synthec® running-in layer so effective: • Minimal mixed friction • Maximum wear resistance • Reliable continuous operation • Fast start capability • Durability under high loads, vibrations and temperatures of up to 200 °C From the concept phase to aftersales, our experts in R&D, application engineering and sales work closely with customers to develop tailored bearing solutions – from material selection and simulation to testing under extreme conditions. Because the digital transformation needs more than computing power. It needs engineering expertise that keeps critical infrastructure running. #ArtificialIntelligence #DataCenters #EnergyInfrastructure #SputterTechnology #PlainBearings #Engineering #Miba #TechnologiesForACleanerPlanet
