AI-tagged announcements have often led to positive one-day moves, though patent and conference news have sometimes seen muted or negative follow-through.
Over the past year, EPOW’s AI-related news has ranged from patents to strategic expansion. The Vietnam AI supply-chain expansion on Mar 25, 2026 and the AI-focused rebranding on Feb 11, 2026 both saw double-digit gains. Earlier AI patents in October 2025 produced smaller, mixed reactions, and an AI data-center–focused trade show appearance saw a slight decline. Today’s onboarding of a high-end NVIDIA-collaborating PSU team continues the AI data-center buildout narrative established in these prior updates.
Historical Comparison
Across 5 prior AI-tagged updates, EPOW’s average one-day move was 7.51%, with reactions ranging from modest to strong, offering a benchmark for gauging any response to this AI data-center power engineering news.
AI news has progressed from trade-show outreach and AI safety/efficiency patents in 2025 to strategic rebranding and supply-chain expansion in 2026. The current announcement adds specialized AI data-center power engineering, reinforcing the shift toward integrated AI infrastructure solutions.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights EPOW’s push deeper into AI data-center infrastructure by onboarding a veteran PSU team collaborating with NVIDIA on high-density, liquid-cooled power systems. Historically, AI-tagged updates have produced mixed but often positive reactions, with an average one-day move of 7.51%. Investors may focus on execution: converting validated prototypes into mass production, securing customers, and managing capital needs as the company targets the emerging 800VDC microgrid power market.

DOVER, USA, May 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- E-Power Inc. (“E-Power”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) (NASDAQ: EPOW), a leading provider of AI Data Center (AIDC) microgrid solutions and advanced battery materials, today announced that its majority-owned subsidiary has officially onboarded a veteran technical team specializing in high-performance AI power supply units (PSU). Since late 2024, this team has been in deep technical collaboration with NVIDIA, providing cutting-edge solutions for ultra-high power density, liquid cooling, and power smoothing architectures.
Distinguished Leadership with Decades of Industry Expertise
The newly joined team is led by a renowned expert in the power supply industry with over 20 years of experience. This leadership previously spearheaded the development of unified power platforms for global telecommunications giants and successfully oversaw the mass production of EV, energy storage, and server power solutions.
Key team members include Vice President of R&D with over two decades of development experience at world-class firms such as Artesyn and Flex, alongside production management experts from top-tier global power companies.
Industry-Leading Energy Density and Standard Power Smoothing
The current power architecture developed by this team achieves the highest energy density among realizable products on the market today. Following NVIDIA’s established architectural naming conventions, the team utilizes Power Smoothing as a standard architecture to stabilize energy fluctuations.
- Grid Protection: The Power Smoothing architecture is implemented to smooth out power spikes and prevent adverse impacts on the electrical grid.
- Energy Bank (E-Bank): To support this architecture, the team pioneered the Energy Bank concept, which utilizes a charge bank of low-internal-resistance electrolytic capacitors to provide energy buffers for high-density racks.
- Advanced Manufacturing: The team employs "Full Tab Welding" processes to ensure capacitors achieve extremely low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) and Inductance (ESL), supporting currents up to 1000A.
Liquid Cooling Breakthroughs for Next-Gen Data Centers
As heat dissipation becomes a critical bottleneck for AI data centers, the team has focused on advanced liquid-cooled power solutions.
- Fanless Architecture: The team introduced a fanless power architecture for AI computing, providing prototypes to industry giants including Meta, Google, and NVIDIA.
- Module Performance: The team has launched 16kW AC modules and 50kW DC modules with peak efficiencies of
98% and99% , respectively. - Support for Rubin/Ultra Platforms: For the latest 800V MGX systems, the subsidiary offers liquid-cooled Power Shelf solutions with integrated Capacitor Backup Units (CBU).
- Superior Energy Reserve: These solutions offer a total energy reserve of 275kJ and a hold-up time of 387ms, significantly outperforming standard industry benchmarks.
Strategic Financing to Accelerate Global Delivery
The team's solutions and simulation results have received high validation from leading North American internet companies and AI chip manufacturers. The new organization brings a comprehensive ecosystem of engineers specializing in software, hardware, thermal simulation, and testing.
To accelerate the transition from prototypes to global mass production, E-Power’s subsidiary is launching a new round of financing. These funds will be directed toward purchasing advanced laboratory equipment, scaling the engineering workforce, and providing the liquidity necessary to dominate the emerging 800VDC microgrid power market.
