Modern ICT industry greatly relies on new technologies
that do not necessarily have to be an ICT technology. One of the new
technologies which are increasingly being used as backup power solution, as
well as, primary power is the technology of energy storage vendor that helps
that Cloud total solution is greener and therefore technologically acceptable.
The idea behind the energy of storage is quite simple and quite old - is based
on the need for the energy produced is not used at the time of production it is
today already be stored and used when needed we need. If you are ICT
professionals this will probably remind you of the UPS equipment, but the energy
storages are much more than battery solutions for temporary storage of energy.
The energy storages on the one hand provide a solution for storing large
amounts of energy that can be released if necessary, but it is not their sole
and overriding function. The primary function of these devices is to regulate
the voltage and current in the electrical grid, they in fact represent the
energy buffers on the level of energy networks. Then it should be highlighted
that the energy storages first technology that enables real and widespread use
of alternative forms of energy as the same may from small consumer store energy
and return them the same, if necessary, avoiding the complex mechanism of
delivery and billing of electricity to the national power systems.
It should also be noted that the energy storages depending on the
technology implementation can store energy much denser than the existing
battery systems, and it can be kept, and depending on the selected solution
over a period of a few minutes up to half a year, and finally to allow the
recovery of energy the level of energy substation. This last quality is a
special advantage, because thanks to this waste energy, which now goes to the
thermal dissipation can be partially collected and taken to an energy storage,
and hence used elsewhere, which increases the overall coefficient of efficiency
and energy efficiency of the building in which it is located server farm.
Another good feature as an application of energy of storage backup solutions
around the perimeter of the data center is reflected in the possibility of
applying the same solutions thanks to outsource energy supply and / or backup
energy solution.
The energy storages behave like Cloud energy producers. Although, the
energy storages in essence do not produce energy rather than only stocked energy, one of the models of their
implementation is a model secondary production and delivery of energy to
consumers who, due to a power failure or a sudden rise in consumption (peaks in
consumption) is required. In this model it is shown that the incomparably
cheaper by consumers to buy energy reserves and from the nearest power of
storage but to buy direct from the manufacturers in the products of a time.
How is this possible? So energy producers must sharply increase their
production capacity in the sudden changes of consumption and then their
equipment has to work with when the peak load is much less efficient. On the
other hand the energy storages still have the same energy efficiency that is
achieved in the cycle of charge and discharge. How is the overall energy
efficiency of storage is high enough then the companies that manage profitable
given plants to buy power from the primary consumers when low power
consumption, it is then stored in its capacity a return to the network when
requirements for power consumption growth.
Special benefits of energy storage vendor is reflected in the fact that
they can store energy in much greater quantity than was possible until now. In
fact, if you combine a number of different mechanical aspects of storage, the
total capacity of storage is such that it is possible to store the energy of
the order of hundreds of MWh, which is enough to get hooked on the UPS device
is not just a consumer, such as server farms, but also the consumer the size of
a city. A good example of this, which represents the city of New York a couple
of years of storage technology used to power the "correction" of
electrical values supplied electricity and to power the town or city areas, if
necessary.
Energy storages in terms of backup solutions or primary power solutions
server farms can be carried out on the site server farms (kinetic storages may
be buried in the footer or directly by the accommodation
facility)at the edge of Data Center
(kinetic and lower gravity systems, and thermal energy storages and large
capacity battery systems) or in a remote location (gravitational systems that
are in the field of pumped storage or abandoned mine shafts, and use electrical
power grid energy service providers for the delivery of electricity).
Finally it should be noted that the use of storage reduce energy and
operating costs of server farms because even though it is not a primary
supplier of power but a secondary supplier of the fact that the energy operator
may buy electricity from any manufacturer at a time when it is most cost
corresponds to the same, and that is delivered at a somewhat lower prices.
The application of energy storage technologies as we can see it is possible
to significantly reduce costs, increase resistance to risks, always provide uninterrupted and reliable working and what is most
important to increase the overall energy efficiency of the Data Centre, which
directly leads to a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions.
Using this technology enables and sustainable development and reduce
environmental pollution, so it is not surprising that some of the great Claude
service provider decided to use it - and thanks to all these advantages it is
likely that the application of energy storage and their binding to data centers
in the future to grow.
