Beijing data center giant powers up with energy savings
An ABB case study
The installation of an intelligent power solution for the Kangsheng Data Center in Beijing will support its goal of becoming “a low carbon and green data center” while securing 99.99% power reliability. As China’s $30.68 billion data center market continues to underpin its booming digital economy, this innovative ABB solution will guarantee 24/7 system availability for this critical infrastructure.
Launched in 2016, Kangsheng Data Center is a vast 12,800 square meters of colocation space for leading domestic and multinational companies. In line with its sustainability goals and China’s wider carbon peak and neutrality targets, the facility required a complete upgrade to ensure power security for critical information and data assets while minimizing energy consumption. In the context of the energy-intensive data center industry, where even a second of power downtime can have huge implications for financial losses and reputational damage, it was equally important to achieve this while ensuring the highest levels of power reliability.
