  2. NYSERDA Mission: To advance innovative energy solutions in ways that improve New York’s economy and environment Vision: To serve as a catalyst – advancing energy innovation and technology, transforming New York’seconomy, empowering people to choose clean and efficient energy as part of their everyday lives.

  3. Importance of Data Centers in NYS • New York has the 2nd largest concentration of data centers in the US • Energy efficient growth of data center load is key to maintaining sustainability of the NYS economy and IT delivery infrastructure Studies found: • NYS data centers consume ~4.5 billion kWh/yr at a cost of ~$600 million • Energy consumption by data centers is forecasted to double in 3-5 years

  4. Challenges Facing Data Centers Today • Growing IT Demand • Constrained space and power availability • Increasing energy and operating costs • Common themes • Over-provisioned IT infrastructure • Ineffective/inefficient cooling • IT and Facilities coordination • Reliability is the priority

  5. NYSERDA’s Data Center and IT Efficiency Program Goal: To maximize energy efficiency and computing performance in data centers by addressing all steps in the technology innovation chain, through: • Research & Development • Market Transformation • Education and Training • Deployment Initiatives Market Development Demonstration Projects Market Adoption Codes & Standards Product/Process Development Technology R&D Commercial Applications

  6. Research & Development • Research program developed in 2008 to support development and/or demonstration of energy efficient data center and computing technologies • Innovation supported through R&D’s NextGen Technologies (PON 1105, 1772) and Data Center and Server Efficiency (PON 1206) programs Market Development Demonstration Projects Market Adoption Codes & Standards Product/Process Development Technology R&D Commercial Applications

  7. NextGen - Current R&D Opportunity • The NextGen Program (PON 1772) supports the development and/or demonstration of efficient energy end-uses in buildings; including data center hardware and space conditioning technologies • Program provides support for feasibility studies, product development, demonstration, and commercialization of innovative technologies • Max award is $300k per project. • Round 3 (final) is due January 27th

  8. Research & Development • NYSERDA R&D have supported 15 projects with over $3M in funding. Topics have included: • Desktop, Server, and Storage Virtualization • Energy Monitoring and Management • Advanced Energy Efficient Servers • Efficient File/Operating Systems • Airflow Management • Free Cooling • Advanced UPS • DC Power Distribution • Cryo-Computing • Solid-State Drives Market Development Demonstration Projects Market Adoption Codes & Standards Product/Process Development Technology R&D Commercial Applications

  9. Market Transformation • NYSERDA supports market analysis, training and information dissemination for the purpose of increasing awareness and to help motivate wider adoption of efficient technologies and practices Market Development • NYSERDA/ASHRAE Data Center Best Practices Workshops (2009, 2010) • NYSERDA University Data Center Conference (2010) • Market Research – “Barriers to Adoption” • Data Center energy efficiency framework (DCEEF) – On-going Demonstration Projects Market Adoption Codes & Standards Product/Process Development Technology R&D Commercial Applications

  10. Deployment - Industrial and Process Efficiency • NYSERDA’s IPE Program is investing ~$115 Million over three years to widen the deployment of commercially available energy efficient practices at manufacturing sites and data centers Market Development • Reduction Goal: • 840,000 MWh • 1,000,000 MMBtu • Directly rewards data centers for sustainable, efficient load growth Demonstration Projects Market Adoption Codes & Standards Product/Process Development Technology R&D Commercial Applications

  11. FlexTech Program • FlexTechis a technical assistance program that provides cost-shared engineering studies and energy audits for the purpose of identifying problem areas and energy efficiency opportunities • Includes but not limited to: • Feasibility Studies • CFD Modeling • Facility Systems • IT Systems • Benchmarking/Commissioning • Provides 50% Cost Share • Up to $1 million

  12. Industrial and Process Efficiency Incentives • Incentive is paid based on verified energy savings ($0.12/kWh upstate, up to $0.16/kWh in Con Edison) • Incentives for energy saving improvements • IT: Next Generation Servers, Virtualization, Storage Consolidation, Server Load Prioritization and Optimization • Facilities: Air Flow Management, Cooling, Use of Waste Heat, UPS System Upgrades • New construction or existing assets • Detailed engineering analysis to determine savings • Large projects require M&V • 50% of project costs up to $5 million per project

  13. Joint Data Center ProgramWestchester Launch Date: January 27, 2011 • Technical Assistance Studies for data centers interested in identifying their energy efficiency options. • Energy Efficiency Incentives for retrofit and new construction projects to off-set the cost of energy efficiency improvements. • Customer Installation Support to provide participating data centers with a complete package that addresses all energy related issues critical to their facilities’ operation. • Outreach, Education, and Marketing to recruit data centers into the initiative.
