Data center operators are facing a triple whammy: utility supply limits, decarbonization, and increased AI demands. How can they overcome all three challenges at the same time?
PEM fuel cells were pioneered in the 1960s by NASA. Now, suggests Nedstack’s Jakob Bruinsma, they’re on the cusp of the big-time
New demands from high-performance compute are placing even bigger demands on rack PDUs. How are companies like Legrand helping data center operators to keep up?
The data center sector is one of the most demanding in the world. Cummins’ Rich Scroggins tells DCD how data center operators are leading the way towards sustainability and decarbonization
The rise of renewable power makes balancing the power grid more challenging. But data centers can help by providing grid balancing and other services, argues Eaton’s Forrest D. Secosky
Decarbonization and Net Zero are journeys, not projects. AVK’s Ben Pritchard maps out the way, calling at HVO, on-site generation and microgrids
Kirby prides itself on its ‘no surprises approach’ to projects, backed up by thorough planning with all stakeholders from pre-construction all the way to commissioning
Norway’s hydro-power can provide renewable energy to data centers across Europe. Or, better still, data centers can come to Norway to take advantage of competitively priced renewable electricity all-year round
Gas engines can be used for more than just reliable backup, they can provide primary power while also facilitate a transition to carbon neutral operation argues industry veteran Jan Buijk
See how Hitec upgraded the DRUPS systems at a San Francisco city data center while transforming client business methodologies in the process. Generating big savings for years to come
Kitting out data center cabinets, racks and PDUs can take months, but Panduit claims its new modular approach can slash the time it takes to a matter of days
While lead-acid is the established UPS battery technology and Li-ion is more energy dense, nickel-zinc is a better all-round technology, says ZincFive’s Aaron Schott
ABB’s refreshed data center configuration app makes server room specs add-up automatically
As data center operators seek cleaner, more sustainable options, natural gas backup microgrids could improve emissions and cut costs, through revenue-generating market participation programs
New Galaxy V series offers up to 99 percent efficiency, claims Schneider, and could pay for itself within two-and-a-half years
Electricity companies need help stabilizing the grid, and data center operators could help – and make money – by offering the services of their UPS systems
Anord Mardix’s first low-voltage switchboard in the US offered a dual UL/IEC listing. Its latest, though, is aimed squarely at the UL 891 market
Spending $1.6m on electricity every year? Better cooling can cut it to $1m, Craig tells DCD
Identifying inefficiencies in a data center that has to be running 24/7 can be challenging, but using 3D models with built-in physics engines can help, says Future Facilities’ Sherman Ikemoto
“Deep component visibility down to the chip” the key to better power consumption, maintenance and reliability, claims Ninov
The Texas power outages had data center operators rushing to re-assess their business continuity plans. But what really happened, and what are the real lessons that can be learned?
Over the next five years, Asia’s data center industry will become the largest in the world, but space constraints and power could limit the sector’s potential, warns SoftIron’s Andrew Moloney
