Founded by German engineer Anton Piller in 1909, Piller Power Systems has become the No. 1 provider of high-end power protection, with over a century of experience. Today, the company has subsidiaries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Australia, employing nearly 1,000 people worldwide. Our modern, purpose-built manufacturing and R&D facilities at Piller’s headquarters in Osterode, Germany, along with our assembly and testing facility in Bilshausen, span 14 hectares and provide more than 50,000 m² of state-of-the-art accommodation. Piller is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the multi-disciplined global UK engineering and industrial group, Langley Holdings Plc. In 2016, Piller acquired Active Power Inc., a specialist in flywheel energy storage.
Piller Power Systems addresses the power protection needs of all types of data centers—hyperscale, colocation, and enterprise—ensuring reliable performance from the grid to the rack, regardless of environment or load.
The rapid, AI-driven evolution has led to unprecedented scales of total power capacity, increased power densities at the rack, and the adoption of liquid cooling technologies. These advancements necessitate clean, secure on-site power, hybrid microgrids, power conditioning, stabilization, and high-performance, flexible UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) technology.
Piller’s solutions can be scaled to suit changing lease commitments, operating at highly efficient levels with optimized capital investment for each stage of development. Space-saving, reduced-maintenance battery-free solutions or battery-based options can be accommodated within the same facility, providing a tailored solution for every demand.
As a global leader in uninterruptible power supply solutions, Piller offers bespoke UPS systems designed to safeguard your facility from the impacts of grid congestion and overloaded power grids, even in densely populated areas.
Sustainability remains a core focus for Piller, with significant initiatives underway to reduce environmental impact and lead in the transition to green energy. Our sustainable strategy is built around maximum energy efficiency, long-term operation, reliability, and less waste. Our products are designed for maximum clean energy output with minimum resources.
