Microsoft uses fuel-powered batteries to power data centers

If Microsoft absolutely expands this aspect of its efforts, more data centers in the future may adopt a large number of such fuel-powered batteries, and may even greatly reduce the power supply cost of buildings during construction, save energy and make better use of fuel-powered batteries. Supply energy. Abstract: A few months ago, Microsoft announced that it is studying the use of fuel-powered batteries in some data centers to replace traditional charging systems and provide sufficient power for servers. Today, the company successfully demonstrated a demo at the National Fuel Cell Research Center of the University of California (NationalFuelCellResearchCenter). On the Datacenters website, Microsoft claimed: We have successfully used fuel power cells for direct current (DC) output, basically stripping away the traditional data center. The benefit of the related infrastructure in the energy supply chain is that it helps the data center become a very efficient system with a very simplified power supply chain and less potential failure rate. If Microsoft absolutely expands this aspect of its efforts, more data centers in the future may adopt a large number of such fuel power cells, and may even greatly reduce the power supply cost of buildings during construction, save energy and make better use of fuel power cells. Supply energy. Microsoft said in the demonstration: After the use of fuel-powered batteries, the energy efficiency from batteries to servers has greatly increased, from 39.8% to 53.3%.
