Apple has just announced that it will build its second data centre in Denmark powered completely by renewable energy.
In total, the project will cost $921 million and the company expects that its new data centre will begin operations during the second quarter of 2019.

When it comes to installing uninterruptible power supplies within a server room or data centre white space, there are two choices. The first is to install the UPS within the server cabinets as a rack mount device and the second is to install the uninterruptible power supply as a stand-alone system.

A datacentre facility is quite simply a managed and controlled environment in which to run file severs to store, process and deliver information to connected users. A datacentre may be an enterprise facility serving the needs of the organisation or a colocation one that sells space and service to multiple clients. In terms of the management and control of this environment we are concerned with critical power and cooling within the facility. Servers generate heat and the white space needs to be cooled to prevent over-heating and a fire risk. The critical path, from the mains income to the server AC power inputs also requires power protection in order to maintain the service(s).

The critical power path within a data centre runs from the building incomer through LV switchboards, uninterruptible power supplies and power distribution units to the IT server racks it will ultimately power. To achieve the right electrical design, with no single-points of failure and the resilience required for the data centre’s Tier rating from the Uptime Institute requires the type of approach offered by professional data centre power consultants such as EcoPowerSupplies.
