SAMSUNG was named as winner of the The smarter E AWARD 2025 in the Category "Energy Storage" for the application of its U8A1.
The U8A1 is an ultra-high-power UPS battery system from Samsung SDI. Using LMO battery chemistry, it offers fast charging and discharging while maintaining high thermal stability. It can supply 5 minutes of power at an 8C discharge rate at an industry-leading 645 amps. This exceptional performance and the inherent safety features of the active material make it suitable for power-critical and fire-sensitive environments. These include hospitals, data centers, and refrigeration systems. Thanks to its compact rack design and adapted temperature controls, it can deliver a 1-megawatt UPS system from just 1.36 square meters. To minimize operating and replacement costs, Samsung SDI provides a 10-year warranty and a 15-year battery life guarantee. Our jury was impressed by the U8A1’s performance, reliability, and safety, which deliver long-term peace of mind in commercial UPS systems.
