Data centre: modelling, opportunities, and considerations. Overview of data centre dynamics
- Data centres are becoming a major part of the modern power system.
- Data centre consumption in Australia is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 25.1% to reach 12.0 TWh by 2030 and 34.5 TWh by 2050.
- These loads are highly sensitive and can have rapid fluctuations.
- Data Centres have a very high concentration of power electronic converters.
- This research seeks to model the dynamic behaviour of data centres, investigate the interconnections between data centers and the grid, and find solutions to the AI training load fluctuations.
