Eaton Delivers Edge-Based Innovation to Help Mitigate the Impact of AI Power Bursting on Both Data Centers and the Grid Eaton announced that it has achieved an industry-first solution for identifying large fluctuations in energy demanded by artificial intelligence (AI) computing infrastructure, known as AI power bursts. Eaton's new edge-based solution, available via a firmware update for its Eaton Power Xpert quality (PXQ) event analysis system, helps detect potential subsynchronousoscillations (SSO) in data centers, enabling operators to more effectively protect critical infrastructure and enhance resiliency as AI energy needs grow. The increasing power requirements of AI data centers have given rise to the phenomenon of power bursting - un unforeseen spikes in energy usage due to the intensive computation needs of GPU servers powering AI workloads. SSO can cause severe, costly damage to both data center infrastructure and the grid, which may not be equipped to handle these large load swings, making it essential for operators to identify and mitigate SSO bursts before they lead to costly outages due to transformer overheating, ferro resonant damage and other impacts to equipment. Eaton's PXQ is a versatile power quality meter for switchgear, switchboards and power distribution units (PDUs) that integrates sophisticated edge analytics to streamline the identification and resolution of power quality events such as sags, swells, transients and harmonics. Now, through a PXQ meter remote firmware upgrade, customers can leverage their system to reliably detect SSO and allow operators to take preventive actions to resolve issues before they cause lasting damage to data centers and the grid. Eaton's grid-to-chip strategy uses intelligent power distribution systems, backup power solutions, digital offers and other technologies to help operators optimize white and gray space in AI data centers. Other key milestones in this approach include Eaton's recent announcement of its collaboration with NVIDIA to help lead the transition to 800 VDC power infrastructure to support 1 megawatt racks and beyond, as well as its collaboration with Siemens Energy for a fast-track approach to build data centers with integrated onsite power. Eaton will be showcasing its grid-to-chip solutions at Yotta 2025, Sept. 8-10 in Las Vegas in booth #319. Additionally, Eaton experts JP Buzzell and Peter De Bock, vice president of energy and cooling, will present in sessions at the conference on opportunities to meet AI data center energy challenges in an evolving landscape.

Eaton Announces Breakthrough, AI-Powered Innovation to Help Utilities Strengthen Wildfire Prevention Efforts Eaton announced a innovation strengthening wildfire prevention efforts on utility distribution systems. Achieved in collaboration with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) research and development arm, the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and multiple North American utilities, the new Eaton HiZ Protect™? solution addresses a long-standing challenge for electric utilities: accurately and quickly detecting and mitigating high-impedance (HiZ) powerline faults that could potentiallyignite wildfires. Pilot projects with multiple North American utilities are underway to further refine the technology, which is expected to be first available in Eaton's Form 7 recloser controls. Existing grid protection technologies struggle to accurately prevent or identify HiZ faults, prompting utilities to resort to public safety power shutoffs during high-risk conditions. Eaton's HiZ Protect technology will help strengthen utility wildfire prevention efforts by automatically and accurately identifying and isolating these powerline faults. Under lab-simulated conditions and using real-world grid data from multiple utilities, the Eaton technology detected and de-energized HiZ faults with greater than 90% accuracy. HiZ faults, often caused by fallen trees or damaged insulators, are historically difficult to detect due to their low fault current levels and unique characteristics. Eaton's approach to identifying and mitigating high-im Pedance faults incorporates three novel elements including, integrated sensors, machine learning and edge-based implementation. The solution can be deployed in grid-edge monitoring and control devices such as Eaton's Form-7 recloser controls to provide high-fidelity data. This capability is critical in remote areas, where communication infrastructure is limited and the ability to rapidly respond to grid conditions is essential. The Eaton solution was developed through extensive research on the unique fault signatures of high-impedance events on the grid and precise measurement of variables such as tree species, soil types and environmental conditions. Hundreds of simulations and field experiments were conducted at Eaton's Thomas A. Edison Test Center in Franksville, Wisconsin. Eaton used the data to develop a novel machine learning algorithm capable of reliably predicting and reducing the potential for these powerline faults to initiate wildfires. The company is piloting the technology with utilities and across various geographic conditions to further refine and validate the technology. During the 2025 DistribuTECH conference in March 2025, Souvik Chandra, PhD, a senior specialist engineer at Eaton's Research Labs, will participate in a panel discussion on the strategies utilities are deploying to mitigate wildfire risks, including Eaton's novel fault detection technology.

Eaton Introduces 48-Volt DC/DC Converter Designed for Harsh Environments Eaton announced it is now offering a higher power version of its low-voltage 48-volt DC/DC converter for commercial and off-highway vehicles that is designed to withstand the harsh environments in which those vehicles operate. Eaton’s DC/DC converter takes power from a 48-volt system and steps it down to 12 volts to run accessories and other low-power systems. Eaton’s DC/DC converter takes power from a 48-volt system and steps it down to 12 volts to run accessories and other low-power systems. This design helps essential equipment—including antilock brakes and power steering—work even in the case of a power failure, making it unique among product offerings in this space. There is a growing demand for 48-volt DC/DC converters as off-highway and commercial vehicle manufacturers increasingly switch to dual-voltage electrical architectures. Eaton’s converters feature a natural convection, air-cooled design for ease of integration and can operate at ambient temperatures up to 85 degrees Celsius. Additionally, the converters are designed with high efficiency to prevent power loss over a wide operating range. The converters are also designed to reduce weight and save space. Most modern vehicles operate on 12-volts or 24-volts, so moving up to 48-volts results in up to four times the voltage, which decreases the electrical current by the same ratio. Because wire size is chosen based on the amount of electrical current, decreasing the current allows for the use of smaller wires, which reduces weight and helps alleviate packaging concerns. Eaton’s DC/DC converter portfolio provides flexibility through multiple power and voltage levels and can be optimized to work seamlessly with a manufacturer’s charging system specifications. It also features a Controller Area Network (CAN) bus, which allows direct communication from the DC/DC converter to other vehicle electronic control units to transmit diagnostic information.

Eaton Completes First-Of-Its-Kind Clean Energy Project in Puerto Rico to Power Manufacturing and Support the Regional Power Grid Eaton cut the ribbon on a significant clean energy project at its Arecibo, Puerto Rico, manufacturing facility where the company makes circuit breakers used in homes, buildings and industrial applications. The size of the clean energy microgrid system deployed by Eaton and Enel North America is a first in Puerto Rico, substantially reducing the facility’s carbon footprint, boosting energy resilience and bolstering community infrastructure. Eaton also implemented efficiency measures using its intelligent power management technologies to reduce its energy footprint. The first-of-its-kind clean energy project in Puerto Rico demonstrates Eaton’s Everything as a Grid approach to the energy transition that enables flexible energy systems, supporting more resilient, efficient and affordable power. The project will generate more than half of the facility’s energy needs to help reduce emissions, offset energy costs and ensure resilience during grid outage events. The microgrid system incorporates 5 megawatts (MWac) solar PV, approximately 1.1 MW of battery storage and existing onsite generators. Eaton’s focus on sustainability at its Arecibo facility is part of the company’s broad initiative targeting a 50% reduction in carbon emissions across its operations by 2030. In Puerto Rico and around the world, Eaton is implementing energy efficiency measures and optimizing renewable generation to accelerate a low-carbon future. The microgrid is designed to withstand Category 5 strength hurricane-force winds and provides added value in normal grid-connected operations by generating renewable energy that can be consumed, stored and delivered back to the local grid to reduce stress on the island’s utility infrastructure. Eaton and Enel North America are initiating construction of a second microgrid at Eaton’s Las Piedras manufacturing facility to further strengthen energy resilience in Puerto Rico. Enel North America built, owns and operates the system on behalf of Eaton. Enel North America financed the project under an energy-as-a-service model, shifting Eaton’s investment in the microgrid system from a capital to an operational expense. Eaton provided installation expertise and key technologies for the microgrid system, including its Power Xpert microgrid solutions and leading power distribution equipment. Eaton’s Everything as a Grid approach to the energy transition helps customers safely add more renewables and energy storage, transforming operations to become more sustainable and resilient while lowering costs.

Eaton Introduces Next-Generation Fuel Tank Isolation Valve for Hybrid Electric Vehicles Eaton announced it has launched its next-generation fuel tank isolation valve (FTIV) for hybrid vehicles. The new FTIV®? is easier to mount, 27% lighter, 39% smaller and contains 24% fewer components than its predecessor. The gas engine in a hybrid vehicle does not operate continuously. As a result, hybrid fuel systems require special measures to address evaporative emissions that accumulate when the gas engine is not in operation. Eaton's next generation FTIV comes at a time when hybrids are becoming a popular alternative to fully electric vehicles. As new hybrids come into the market, Eaton's isolation valve can reduce packing challenges with its reduced dimensions. Eaton engineers reduced the size of the FTIV by 39% by improving the magnetic force produced by the isolation valve while at the same time reducing the amount of copper. Additionally, the new FTIV is designed to be easier to mount in a variety of challenging tank configurations within the vehicle. Eaton has agreements to supply its next-generation FTIV to two global automotive customers and has drawn interest from other manufacturers. Recent Insider Transactions • Mar 07

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: €2.9m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks High level of debt (42% net debt to equity). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€2.9m sold).

API access can be granted on a subscription basis to owners/users of Eaton’s smart circuit breaker. The result is a digital abstract of a resident’s activities of daily living based on their usage of a home’s electrical devices and appliances. Energy usage data can be grouped around typical activities of daily living like morning/evening routines and meal preparation—practically any activity that involves consumption of electrical energy. Once the AI has ‘learned’ what normal looks like for a particular household, it can become predictive of potential problems. For example, once an evening/sleep routine has been established, anomalies like more than normal bathroom visits could be flagged, and an intervention could be scheduled before a small issue becomes chronic.
