ZincFive Expands Nickel-Zinc Technology into In-Rack Backup and AI Dynamic Power Solutions28.9.2026 14:05:00 CEST | Press release

Applying proven high-rate nickel-zinc technology to in-rack backup and AI-driven transient power applications ZincFive®, the leader in nickel-zinc (NiZn) battery-based solutions for immediate power applications, today announced its expansion into in-rack energy storage with the development of Battery Backup Unit (BBU) and AI Dynamic Power Module (DPM) solutions designed to address the evolving energy storage requirements of AI data centers. As AI drives higher rack power densities and increasingly dynamic workloads, data center power architectures are evolving to manage both traditional backup requirements and rapid, repeated changes in power demand. These transient loads can place significant stress on electrical infrastructure, creating a growing need for power solutions closer to the rack that can respond quickly, safely, and reliably. Today’s rack-level technologies often require tradeoffs between energy capacity and dynamic power response. Traditional BBUs are primarily designed t

Xceedance Reports 35-50% Efficiency Gains in Insurance Operations Through AI Orchestration28.9.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release

Production deployments on Xceedance’s agent studio have delivered approximately 35% efficiency improvements at go-live, with some early implementations approaching 50% through ongoing optimization and operational learning. Xceedance said today that AI orchestration is producing measurable efficiency gains in live insurance operations, delivered through Orchestrated Intelligence, its operating model, and IAN, its agent studio for insurance. In agency and broker operations, processes moved onto IAN delivered around 35% efficiency improvement from the point of go-live. As these implementations have matured, some are now approaching 50%. Xceedance is seeing the same pattern in underwriting support for excess and surplus lines carriers. The company is also deploying AI at scale in claims third-party administration (TPA) operations, where the volume of repeatable work is large.
