EcoDataCenter relies on renewable power. See how EcoStruxure complements the natural environment too, helping EcoDataCenter further innovate sustainability in the Nordics.
The Challenge
• Focused on sustainability, EcoDataCenter needed an ultra-low carbon footprint data centre at the heart of its HPC colocation in Falun, Sweden.
• EcoDataCenter wanted to set up an ultra-efficient, reliable power management system to support this project and ensure customer-server uptime.
• The company also sought greater physical security and cybersecurity for data safety and communications between clients.
The Solution
Sustainable digitisation with EcoStruxure solutions
Apps, Analytics and Services: EcoStruxure IT Advisor, Connected Services Hub
Edge Control: EcoStruxure IT Expert, EcoStruxure Building Operation, EcoStruxure Energy Expert, EcoStruxure Building Expert
Connected Products: Uniflair™ Turbocor Chillers, APC™ Netshelter, Galaxy™ VX UPS, Pod Data Centre, InfraStruxure™, Masterpact™ MTZ, Premset™, rPDU, Smart Panels (IEC), Sensors and RFID, CRAH-units, Canalis™, Lithium-ion batteries, cooling centres, AHUs, and heat pumps
- As EcoDataCenter’s chosen partner for the project, our EcoStruxure for Cloud and Service Providers solution was ideal for working effectively with third-party solutions.
- Connected Services Hub, a dedicated team of our data centre experts, remotely monitors, troubleshoots, and analyses EcoDataCenter’s critical facility 24/7.
- Two Uniflair™ Turbocor Chillers add to facility climate control, supplementing the usually low Nordic temperatures, especially during summer's humidity.
The Results
• EcoDataCenter now has connected sensors and meter data generating analytic reports on the data centre's operational efficiency — and its sustainability index.
• Within EcoStruxure architecture, four Galaxy VX UPSs support 1,250 kW of customer load in its 99% efficiency ECOnversion Mode. This backup power frees up energy that can be diverted to clients.
• EcoStruxure proves to be crucial in helping recycle the facility's heat waste. Now, EcoDataCenter uses that efficiency to give back to the local grid, keeping the company focused on being one of the most sustainable data centres in the Nordics.
