Data center energy efficiency improvement study
Mid-Size US Data Center Operator: The challenge
- Silo-ed operation of all DC systems and reactive control strategies were leading to inefficient power consumption.
- Help identify and implement energy efficiency improvement measures.
FEV e+r: Our involvement and solution
- Baselined target DC infrastructure and controls strategy, including systems, layout, management tools, and KPIs
- Developed an industry technology roadmap via competitive benchmarking of 5 players
- Theoretical preliminary evaluation and identification of efficiency gains in the target data center
- Built and calibrated a digital twin of the data center modeling the complete power, thermal, compute systems
- Quantified realistic efficiency improvement measures across the DC and assessed the investment required per measure
- Developed an efficiency improvement roadmap with timing and investment plan
- Implemented the hardware and controls upgrade, along with the establishment of KPIs
