Design and Analysis of Sustainable Green Data Center with Hybrid Energy Sources ()
ABSTRACT
Development of renewable energy (RE) and mitigation of carbon dioxide, as the two
largest climate action initiatives are the most challenging factors for new
generation green data center (GDC). Reduction of conventional electricity
consumption as well as cost of electricity (COE) with preferred quality of
service (QoS) has been recognized as the interesting research topic in
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector. Moreover, it becomes
challenging to design a large-scale sustainable GDC with standalone RE supply.
This paper gives spotlight on hybrid energy supply solution for the GDC to
reduce grid electricity usage and minimum net system cost. The proposed
framework includes RE source such as solar photovoltaic, wind turbine and
non-renewable energy sources as Disel Generator (DG) and Battery. A hybrid
optimization model is designed using HOMER software for cost assessment and
energy evaluation to validate the effectiveness of the suggested scheme
focusing on eco-friendly implication.
