The global demand for data has seen near-exponential growth, fueled by the pandemic. When many of our jobs moved online, the demand for data increased dramatically. 

Figuring out how to power data centers to meet the soaring demands of AI, marks the beginning of a new era in technological innovation.
 

This article is the third and final part of a series on the topic of solutions for always-on mission-critical microgrid applications. In our last installment, we discussed fuel cells as a fast-emerging solution for carbon-neutral, always-on applications.

Replacing technologies that are powered by fossil fuels with technologies powered by renewable energy sources is a key ingredient in the decarbonization recipe.

The formation of ice on the blades of a wind turbine is a major and often overlooked problem.

Incorporating a BESS into a microgrid provides benefits that can be combined for what is known as “value stacking.”

Multiple generators can meet high power requirements and adjust for lower demand. Depending on load, a microgrid designed to deliver 40 MW can run with five generators, two, or even one. 

Kohler has a proven history of resilient power solutions that have survived the unforgiving terrain of the south pole — more than 90 years ago, Adm. Richard Byrd powered his Antarctic journey with Kohler generators, and they were his only means to communicate back to the civilized world.
