Large-scale power back-up for data centers |
摘要 |
A method for providing electrical power to a computer data center includes generating alternating-current power by a plurality of generators and converting the alternating current power from each of the generators to direct current power; combining the direct current power from each of the generators into a common electrical domain; and supplying the computer data center using the combined direct current power. |

1. A method for providing electrical power to a computer data center, the method comprising:
identifying an interruption in power from an electric power grid; beginning operation of a plurality of generator sets in response to the identifying of the interruption in power; generating alternating-current power by the plurality of generator sets and converting the alternating current power from each of the generator sets to direct current power; combining the direct current power from each of the generator sets into a common electrical domain; switching power delivery to the computer data center from the electric power grid to the plurality of generator sets; and supplying the computer data center using the combined direct current power from the common electrical domain. |
