Sustainable energy management for Data Center
October 2024
|EPR Magazine (Electrical & Power Review)
Energy management in data centers focuses on optimising power usage, enhancing sustainability, and improving operational efficiency through innovative technologies and practices.
Energy management in data centers has become increasingly I critical in our digital age, where the demand for services and the pressing need for sustainability are skyrocketing. As data centers evolve to meet the needs of internet services and artificial intelligence (AI), the management of energy resources becomes a central focus. Akilur Rahman explores the importance of energy management, the latest technological advancements and the interplay between data Centers and the energy grid.
The importance of energy management
Data Centers are transitioning towards hyper-scale operations, emphasising efficiency and sustainability. As environmental impact awareness grows, data Center owners are committed to integrating green technologies from the planning phase. With the rise of AI and the growing demand for digital services, energy requirements are surging. Reliable energy systems are non-negotiable, as uptime and safety are paramount for operations. Many data Centers are setting ambitious targets for carbon neutrality or net-zero emissions. The energy landscape is evolving, with facilities adapting to utilise various energy sources, including renewables and microgrids, to enhance resilience and sustainability.
