VMIVME-4941At the China Intelligent Computing Ecological Development Conference hosted by China IDC Circle, Jiang Ying, head of digital business of ABB Electric China Power distribution system, pointed out that there are three main ways for data centers to be green and low-carbon: first, green and clean energy; The second is to achieve accurate matching between source and load; Third, low-carbon operations and sustainable carbon reduction.
Data center is a high energy consumption industry, in the face of energy transformation, how to achieve green and low-carbon development of data center?
In the energy side of the data center to consider the construction of distributed photovoltaic, increase the proportion of renewable energy access. However, the construction area of the buildings in the data center that can be used for photovoltaic is very limited, which cannot effectively promote the transformation and development of the green data center. The lean transformation of data center source and load is realized by “mutual aid and sharing”, and the phased deployment capability of standby power is optimized by “mutual aid and development”, which effectively reduces the overall investment cost of firewood and development units.
Through the all-station digital IEC61850/GOOSE redundant networking communication architectuVMIVME-4941re, the key power supply can be quickly switched within 1 minute, and the precise matching between source and load can be achieved through digital regulation technology, so as to effectively simplify the configuration of highly redundant and heavy assets in the data center power distribution system and build a lightweight data center power distribution system structure. Improve the efficient utilization of assets.
The following is the interview:
What is the path to green and low-carbon data centers?
The data center has gone through about four phases of transformation,
In 2012, the first phase of the data center began to pursue the safety and reliability of power supply;
In 2016, the power efficiency improvement (PUE) was considered;
In 2021, the construction of the East number and west computing cluster will promote the collaborative optimization between energy and computing power;
Until now, with the process of sustainability, creating green and low-carbon data VMIVME-4941centers has been the main goal.
There are three main ways to green and low-carbon data centers:
First, adjust the energy structure, increase the proportion of renewable energy input, and achieve green and clean energy;
Second, to “mutual sharing” to achieve accurate matching between data center source and load;
Third, low-carbon operation, sustainable carbon reduction.
Can the construction of renewable energy effectively help data centers achieve green and low-carbon transition?
