Modeling Data Centers with Cost-Effective Redundancy Approaches

In this video, we'll cover how redundancy modeling in Xendee is different from traditional redundancy assumptions, and how modeling in Xendee results in a more cost-effective, flexible, and resilient energy system that meets strict uptime requirements without unnecessary oversizing.

Microgrid Modeling Series
Boost Cooling Efficiency in Data Centers with CHP + Absorption Chillers

Data centers face intense cooling demands, often met with electricity-intensive systems that drive up operational costs. In this first installment, we explore how combining a CHP generator with an absorption chiller can reduce electricity consumption by recycling waste heat, improving both financial and operational performance.

Xendee has been an integral partner in our microgrid innovation research and in helping UC San Diego to capture new project funding and research opportunities.
