Not necessarily, on 3 phase systems, you would have to be creative to get below

You can easily get to .95 with a simple multipulse rectification. Beyond that, 
other than regulatory compliance, you do not gain much efficiency.

I can't imagine these systems running on anything other than 3 phase power.

And the Power Factor sucks, so there is a lot less real power being used.
