Data centers play a pivotal role in storing, processing, and managing the vast amounts of digital information generated globally and this role comes with pressing challenges related to energy: 1. Escalating Power Consumption: One of the foremost challenges is the continuous rise in power consumption within data centers driven by emerging technologies such as AI, machine learning, and IoT,places a strain on existing electrical infrastructure in main data center hubs. Stakeholders must address this surge in power needs to access power and energy from the grid and find alternative solutions based on “usable” power generation on site (not only emergency) when lacking it and/or grid needs support at particular periods of time, moving from a reactive to proactive role with the grid. 2. Carbon Footprint Concerns: As environmental consciousness grows, stakeholders are increasingly scrutinized for their carbon footprint. Push for renewable energy, replacement of gases as SF6 in electrical equipment by clean alternatives as air, embedded carbon in materials like steel for gen sets, concrete for buildings … are more critical than ever, with stakeholders urged to explore sustainable alternatives to mitigate the industry's overall environmental impact. 3. Heat Management: Effective cooling remains a critical aspect of data center operations, but it is also a substantial source of energy consumption. Optimizing cooling systems, exploring innovative cooling technologies, adopting advanced thermal management strategies and use of waste heat for other uses are imperative to curbing energy waste while maintaining optimal operating conditions. 4. Regulatory Compliance: The regulatory landscape around energy consumption is evolving rapidly. Stakeholders need to stay abreast of local and global regulations governing data center energy usage. Compliance with energy efficiency standards not only aligns with sustainability goals but also safeguards against potential legal ramifications. Good examples are the recently passed Energy Efficiency Directive and SF6 regulations in the EU. Conclusion: Addressing the energy challenges facing data centers requires a holistic approach.

🔋 How can market conditions affect the performance and lifespan of my energy storage system? To answer this question, we simulated the revenue generated by a 10 MW / 10 MWh battery system in the Belgian balancing market (using data from Elia Group), and analysed the battery’s capacity over the past 5 years: 🔶 Without aging ('Benchmark') 🔷 With aging according to the datasheet ('Aging'; depth of discharge limited to 80%, 1C charge and discharge, max. 3 cycles per day) Key insights: 1️⃣ Revenue from energy storage is increasing due to an increase of the imbalance prices, indicating growing interest in energy storage. 2️⃣ The profits generated by the aging battery drop by 11% in 5 years, leaving the battery at 60% of its nominal capacity. To ensure the long-term effectiveness and success of your energy storage systems, it is crucial to understand and manage battery degradation. Accounting for battery aging in your economic analysis and developing strategies to mitigate its effects are essential for sustained performance and cost-efficiency. A digital twin of your storage system is a highly valuable tool in this process, as it allows for precise monitoring, simulation and optimisation of the battery’s performance and degradation over time. 💡 Discover how SynaptiQ, our asset performance management tool, leverages digital twin technology to help you efficiently manage your storage assets.

When building a new, sustainable energy system, it’s not just about increasing the production of clean energy – equally important is how effectively that energy is managed. As our systems become more complex, there goes the essential need for modern, flexible tools to handle and analyze the vast amounts of data they generate. At Electrum, we’ve risen to this challenge by developing EMACS – the Everything Monitoring and Control System. Think of it as the brain behind your energy infrastructure 🧠. It’s the first platform of its kind on the Polish market, already operational in over 350 locations, managing projects ranging from 3 MW to over 200 MW. The #EMACS system is built on #SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) technology, which enables real-time data collection and process oversight. But EMACS takes it a step further, offering not only the classic SCADA features but also advanced business analytics tools that support strategic decision-making. EMACS integrates data from a wide range of devices, including solar panels, wind turbines, energy storage systems, medium voltage relays, energy metres and inverters.
