A Novel Integrated Energy Station by Merging Data Center with Energy Storage: System Constitution, Collocation and Application

A novel integrated energy station system which is formed by merging the data center with the energy storage is proposed in this paper. The proposed system is modular designed. The composition and structure of the designed system are introduced. A two-stage collocation method of the system is suggested, which can determine the quantity and capacity of the main components and key equipments in the system. A typical application of the proposed system in multiple station fusion is illustrated. The structure and the internal interaction of the fused station system are discussed. The combination of electric energy storage, thermal energy storage and data center is a promising way to realize high reliable power supply and heat recovery in the data center. The proposed system can also provide integrated energy services for the users around. It can achieve the integration and optimization of multiple values.
