Pilot project providing zero emissions green hydrogen power to Microsoft’ s data centre in Ireland
The rise of microgrids and hybrid power Microgrid technology is enabling ever more data centre campuses to operate partially or entirely off the public grid. A microgrid is a locally controlled energy system, often combining renewables, battery storage, fuel cells and backup generators, intelligently managed to optimise costs, emissions and uptime.
Schneider Electric is at the forefront of powering this transformation, with recent investments in its R & D labs and innovative new solutions such as highdensity uninterruptible power supplies and advanced microgrid architectures.
