Management overview in the data centre

Since 2015 uses NTT Europe's largest data centre operator, has chosen the deZem system for the energy management of its more than 300 MW of colocation-capacity at 10 locations.

Project goals

  • Monitoring, measurement and analysis of consumption data and data from electrical control technology
  • Evaluation of data to analyse the energetic optimisation of all relevant plants and systems (determining and developing PUE)
  • Tailored reporting for management, technicians and customers
  • Benchmarking for systems and sites
  • Verifying manufacturer information on equipment efficiency
  • Basis for ISO 50001 audit

Technical implementation

  • Integration of already existing measurements from electrical control technology and calibrated measurements (consumption data)
  • Linking of diverse measurements from the central BMS
  • Real-time evaluation of PUEs, benchmarking of data centres
  • Target group-specific dashboards (deZemBoard) and reports (deZemReport)
  • Customised, CI-compliant implementation of special reports

Benefits and achievements

  • Company-wide transparency on energy efficency at all sites - for individual facilities, systems and PUEs
  • Individual reporting of SLAs per suite comprehensive and cost-efficient
  • Effective supervision of manufacturer information under actual conditions involving the procurement department
  • Findings are immediately used in the development of new data centres
