Market Challenges

• Data centers consist of various components, such as generators, IT servers, building shells, and cooling systems, which release carbon dioxide during operation. The carbon emissions depend on the power consumption of these facilities, with those using coal-generated electricity emitting more than those utilizing renewable energy sources. The carbon footprint of US data centers is significant and higher than many other countries. Data center operators can calculate Carbon Usage Effectiveness (CUE) by considering the Data Center Facility Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) rating and carbon dioxide emissions factor. Low PUE ratings correspond to less carbon emissions. The use of intelligent infrastructure, which aids in efficient CUE calculation and power supply based on IT infrastructure requirements, is expected to hinder the growth of the global generator market in data centers due to reduced power consumption.
• Data centers require uninterrupted power supply to ensure business continuity. Traditional power sources like diesel and natural gas generators face challenges from rising fuel costs and environmental concerns. Alternative energy sources, such as biogas from landfills, sewage gas, and industrial waste gases, offer solutions. Generators using biogas and steam turbines are gaining popularity. Major manufacturers like Adani Group are investing in solar-powered data parks and fuel cells. Backup power systems, including Li-ion batteries and power interruption prediction systems, are essential for data center operation. Power loss can lead to significant financial losses and reputational damage. Edge computing sites require customized capacity power backup solutions. Decision-makers face micro-economic factors, including power costs and power reliability, when selecting power backup solutions. Renewable energy sources like wind and solar are becoming more viable options. Fossil fuels and nuclear energy continue to dominate, but their environmental impact and rising costs make them less attractive. Power interruption and backup power supply are critical concerns for data center operation. Generator market trends include the use of fuel cells, natural gas generators, and Li-ion batteries. Power loss prediction systems help mitigate downtime risks. Electricity costs and power reliability are major factors in the decision-making process.
