Providing Resiliency Through Battery Storage Technologies
As data center facilities continue to focus on innovation, resiliency, and sustainability, incorporating distributed generation technologies and sources of renewable energy into the traditional data center design model provides an innovative way to provide resiliency to data center facilities. Integrating distributed generation technologies, such as battery energy storage systems (BESS), can provide an interactive and resilient power distribution design to the data center’s critical equipment. Additionally, a sample University Data Center project utilizing a battery energy storage system for backup power is demonstrated.
