Computing center energy storage

Why do data centers need energy storage?

Backup Power: In the event of an outage, BESS can provide backup power to keep data centers operational, minimizing downtime and data loss. As data center developers face the newer challenges of AI and the processing needs of larger applications, energy storage will play an increasing role in providing reliability and sustainability.

Why do data center developers need battery energy storage systems?

As a result, data center developers are working toward innovative solutions to meet the growing energy demands of their facilities while also reducing their carbon footprint. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are emerging as a critical component of modern data center infrastructure.

How much energy does a data center use?

By some estimates, data center energy demands are projected to consume as much as 9% of US annual electricity generation by the year 2030. As much as 40% of data center total annual energy consumption is related to the cooling systems, which can also use a great deal of water.

What is a battery energy storage system?

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are emerging as a critical component of modern data center infrastructure. By providing service to your operation’s power grid, as well as secondary backup support, BESS can help improve energy reliability while reducing the reliance on fossil fuels.

Why should data center developers use EPC power's Bess solutions?

EPC Power's BESS solutions enables data center developers meet these challenges by providing: Peak Load Shaving: BESS can store excess energy during off-peak hours and release it during peak demand periods, reducing the strain on the local grid and lowering energy costs.

How is the data center market reshaping the energy landscape?

The data center market’s incredible growth is reshaping the energy landscape and putting electricity providers under pressure to keep up with demand. Renewable energy sources alone will not be able to meet the increasing demand and other energy supply options like nuclear and natural gas must be incorporated into the mix.
