Server Farms and Data Centers Reduce Enegy Inefficiencies, Excess Heat, Unecessary PartsData centers can use 100 times more electricity than a typical office building (on a square foot basis), so energy costs are a major concern. DC distribution reduces electrical energy lost in conversion and facility cooling needs by limiting the number of converters (wasted energy become heat) and increases available floorspace and overall system reliability. |
