CHICAGO, April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As artificial intelligence continues to scale globally, the infrastructure supporting it is undergoing rapid transformation. Increasing compute density is driving higher thermal loads in data centers, while rising electricity demand is placing growing pressure on power transmission and distribution systems. In this evolving landscape, material performance has become a key factor in enabling efficiency, reliability, and scalability.

bedra, a global manufacturer of precision copper alloys, addresses these challenges with a portfolio of high-performance materials engineered for AI-related applications. At IEEE PES T&D 2026, the company will present its latest innovations, represented on site by its Vietnam-based subsidiary. The following two application areas highlight how bedra’s materials support the development of AI.

Enabling High-Density AI Computing Systems

Within AI data centers, rising rack-level power density is accelerating the adoption of liquid cooling. bedra’s high-purity copper materials serve as critical components for liquid cooling plates, enabling efficient heat dissipation at hotspot including GPU and CPU. Powerway high-performance copper alloys feature exceptional resistance to high-temperature softening. With post-brazing strength exceeding pure copper by >30%, they ensure structural integrity, enabling the miniaturization of next-generation liquid cooling components.

Our oxygen-free copper, with electrical conductivity of up to 101% IACS, bedra’s copper alloys support efficient power delivery within data centers by reducing voltage drop and minimizing energy loss under high-current conditions. Their excellent formability enables compact electrical cabinet designs, while tight dimensional tolerances for rack-level busbars ensure full compatibility with OCP standards. Moreover, Optional silver and tin plating further extend application performance.

Supporting Power Infrastructure for AI Expansion

Beyond data centers, AI growth is increasing demand for reliable power infrastructure. Medium- and high-voltage systems operate under extreme conditions, making material performance essential for long-term stability.

bedra offers a range of engineered copper alloys. Materials such as bedra18200, Cu-Cr precipitation-strengthened alloy, has about 75% of pure copper’s conductivity but significantly higher strength and hardness.With very good resistance to softening, wear, and deformation at high temperatures, it’s quite suitable for stationary contacts, contact stems, contact bases, and other current-carrying structural members. For some demanding high-voltage environments, bedra18150(Cu-Cr-Zr) offers upgraded performance with improved creep resistance and enhanced high-temperature stability. This ensures reliable electrical performance, minimal wear, and extended service life. bedra10100, Cu-OFE Oxygen-Free-Electronic Copper, is ideal for high-reliability parts in HV vacuum interrupters, minimizing energy losses and improving dielectric performance.

Empowering Global Supply with Scalable Production

Our modern production facility in Vietnam underpins bedra’s global supply chain with large-scale, reliable manufacturing capabilities. Boasting an annual production capacity of 50,000 tons and holds ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001 and IATF16949 certifications, bedra provides over 400 copper, brass, bronze and nickel silver alloy grades,plus customized special profiles.

Sustainability is integral to bedra’s operations. Recognized with an EcoVadis Bronze Medal and CDP Grade B, we maintain a diversified, low-carbon energy mix to support responsible material production for critical power infrastructure worldwide.

Visitors to IEEE PES T&D 2026 can meet bedra at Booth 4885 to learn more.

A successful student pilot demonstrates how secure digital records and AI guidance can help them access education, employment, housing, and life opportunities

SACRAMENTO, Calif., June 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Vaultzy, an AI-powered document management and life assistant platform, today announced the successful completion of a pilot with Miracle University, demonstrating how secure digital records and intelligent guidance can help students overcome barriers to education, employment, and economic mobility.

California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, CPA, noted, “Never expired. Never lost. Your vital documents, all in one secure place.”

For many students, particularly those facing economic hardship or life disruptions, lost identification, unavailable transcripts, and scattered paperwork can delay enrollment, employment, housing applications, financial aid, and access to public services. Vaultzy was created to address this challenge by providing a secure, user-controlled platform for lifelong document management.

Beyond document storage, Vaultzy recently launched the first version of its AI-powered Life Agent. The platform allows users to interact with their personal records and receive guidance related to major life transitions. By understanding what documents a user has available, the Life Agent can help identify requirements and next steps for education, employment, healthcare, government services, financial planning, and other important milestones.

The pilot was conducted in partnership with Miracle University, a Sacramento-based nonprofit organization dedicated to helping students who have left the traditional education system earn their high school diplomas and achieve academic and career success. The initiative focused on helping students digitize, organize, and securely manage their most important records while introducing them to emerging technologies that can support their long-term success.

“Our mission is to help students overcome barriers and unlock their full potential,” said Dr. Kadhir Raja, Founder of Miracle University. “Students need access to their documents, confidence in managing important life transitions, and guidance on what comes next. Vaultzy helps bring all of these together, empowering students to navigate education, employment, housing, and other life opportunities with greater confidence and independence.”

The pilot demonstrated the importance of giving individuals lifelong access to trusted records while providing the tools and guidance needed to use them effectively. As California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, CPA, noted, “Never expired. Never lost. Your vital documents, all in one secure place.”

Looking ahead, Vaultzy plans to continue expanding its AI-powered capabilities. “We envision a future where every individual has a trusted AI companion that not only safeguards their records but also helps guide them through life’s most important transitions,” said Avanti Ramraj, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Vaultzy.

The success of the Miracle University pilot is helping inform broader discussions with educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, financial institutions, and public-sector leaders interested in modernizing how individuals manage and access trusted records while receiving guidance through important life transitions. One of the most promising opportunities is the potential application of Vaultzy within programs serving foster youth, seniors, and other underserved populations.
