Mobile Photovoltaic Containerized Data Centers

How to develop a green data center driven by solar energy?

The system parameters are analyzed. In order to develop the green data center driven by solar energy, a solar photovoltaic (PV) system with the combination of compressed air energy storage (CAES) is proposed to provide electricity for the data center. During the day, the excess energy produced by PV is stored by CAES.

What is the PV power consumption of a data center?

During the period from 8:25 to 17:07, the PV power generation is higher than 17.5 MW. Therefore, during this time, the power consumption of the data center can be fully supplied by the PV system, and the excess PV power is used for the charging process of CAES system to compress the air and store the compressed energy.

What is a prefabricated modular data center?

Answer a few simple questions so we can connect you with a solutions specialist in your industry. Prefabricated modular data centers, also known as integrated modular solutions or containerized data centers, are engineered to meet business-specific requirements to fit in a right-sized secure infrastructure.

Can solar power power a data center server?

The use of solar power isn’t new. But connecting solar power sources directly to data centers presents new challenges: Photovoltaics and data center servers have very different requirements and schedules. Servers need a stable power supply to handle critical tasks and operate 24/7, which solar can’t always provide.
