Net Zero Data Center - Sustainability Emissions Measurements
Sustainability Data Center Network Operation Control (SDC-NOC) gives the visualization of emissions data of Net Zero Data Center and allows for control for emissions measurements.
A Sustainable Software-Defined Data Center can give a new unprecedented level of agility and control for Data Center to know when to process IT load and gain access to renewable energy. The software platform is a control plane consists of renewable energy resource supply type and capacity, emission data, 24/7 emission heat maps, chain of custody of materials, resource usage by assets, and emission types. The sustainability operation procedures ensure decarbonization targets are monitored and controlled towards reaching 24/7 and net zero (carbon, emission, waste) goals for each site. The Sustainable Data Center Network Operation Control Center (SDC-NOC), provides visualization of sustainability metrics designed to quantify the holistic approach of Life Cycle Impact Analysis of resource usage efficiency including clean energy types (solar, wind, hydro-electric, renewable fuel, hydrogen, biogas) and its emission metrics into the air, water, and soil.
The model is capable of performing simulation of sustainability best practices and resilience scenarios by site, including scheduling tradeoffs of 24/7 matching, renewable energy and fuel choices and cost economics to the environment, society, energy tariffs by site of its respective energy market with state incentives. The SDC-NOC designed by InfraPrime provides invaluable automatic run rules of what IT load can be processed using renewable energy based on the renewable production output for 24/7 match, optimal time to process scheduled computing workload to optimize compute capacity across multiple Data Center locations in an availability zone to simultaneously fulfill the resilience uptime and the resource utilization using clean energy.
