AI Data Center Power Calculator

Estimate the power your AI deployment needs.

Enter racks or GPUs, PUE and utilisation to estimate IT load, total facility power, cooling overhead and annual energy. Results use only your inputs and plain arithmetic.

Input mode

kW

Power Usage Effectiveness: total facility power divided by IT power (1.0 to 3.0).

%

Share of the year the load runs at full power (1 to 100).

Method

How this is calculated

  • IT load equals the number of racks times the average kW per rack, or the number of GPUs times watts per GPU, divided by 1,000.
  • Total facility power equals IT load times PUE.
  • Cooling and other overhead equals total facility power minus IT load.
  • Annual energy equals total facility power times utilisation times 8,760 hours in a year.
  • Heat to reject is roughly equal to IT load, because nearly all power used by IT equipment becomes heat.

Limits

What this doesn't tell you

This is a first-pass estimate. Grid connection capacity, redundancy (N+1, 2N), climate and cooling design all change the real number a site needs to secure and deliver.
