Abstract

For decades, data center operators have been drawn to the eastern stretches of Oregon and Washington State, USA. In contrast to the coastal climate that most people conjure when thinking of the Pacific Northwest, the land east of the Cascade Mountains is relatively flat, dry in the summer, and snowy in the winter. Affordable prices for land, tax breaks, and cheap hydroelectric power have made the region one of the main hubs of data center development in the United States, with Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, and Microsoft all investing in multiple campuses.

将数据中心发展为微电网:行业观点和经验教训
几十年来,数据中心运营商一直被吸引到美国俄勒冈州和华盛顿州的东部地区。与大多数人想到太平洋西北部时所联想到的沿海气候相反,喀斯喀特山脉以东的土地相对平坦,夏季干燥,冬季多雪。可承受的土地价格、税收优惠和廉价的水力发电使该地区成为美国数据中心发展的主要枢纽之一,亚马逊、苹果、谷歌、Meta和微软都在这里投资了多个园区。

期刊介绍: IEEE Electrification Magazine is dedicated to disseminating information on all matters related to microgrids onboard electric vehicles, ships, trains, planes, and off-grid applications. Microgrids refer to an electric network in a car, a ship, a plane or an electric train, which has a limited number of sources and multiple loads. Off-grid applications include small scale electricity supply in areas away from high voltage power networks. Feature articles focus on advanced concepts, technologies, and practices associated with all aspects of electrification in the transportation and off-grid sectors from a technical perspective in synergy with nontechnical areas such as business, environmental, and social concerns.
