The challenge of aligning energy-intensive #datacentres with global #sustainability goals has driven interest in innovative solutions like Combined?Heat and Power (#CHP) systems. CHP, which simultaneously generates electricity and captures usable heat, offers a pathway to significantly reduce #carbon emissions while improving #energy efficiency. ? At i3 Solutions Group, Part of Ramboll we’ve examined?how CHP systems can address critical concerns in data centre operations. These systems provide a reliable, localised?energy source, minimising reliance on traditional power grids and reducing transmission losses. By integrating CHP into facility design, operators can also ensure greater energy resilience, a key factor in maintaining uptime during grid disruptions. ? Our white paper provides a detailed?exploration of this approach and its potential impact on the data centre industry, download here: https://lnkd.in/dc9cdq7H
