i3 Solutions Group Releases Latest White Paper Targeting On-Premise Hydrogen Production in Data Centres

"As an energy intensive industry, the data centre sector recognises it has an opportunity to demonstrate leadership when it comes to stewardship of the planet's resources. As an abundant source of potentially carbon neutral power, hydrogen could be a very interesting solution for decarbonizing data centre operations. Joe Sheehan has evaluated its viability, building a carbon reduction model to compare how it could work in real life applications, " says Ed Ansett, Founder and Chairman, i₃ Solutions Group.

This new white paper proposes a model where on-site hydrogen production serves as the primary source of electricity during periods of high grid carbon intensity, thereby reducing reliance on conventional grid power sources. Geographical considerations are integral to optimizing the efficiency of on-site hydrogen production, and the white paper considers simulated results across various locations, highlighting the potential carbon reduction benefits and the significance of aligning hydrogen production with renewable power generation sites.

"While full-scale on-site hydrogen production presents both challenges and opportunities, its viability varies depending on location," explains Sheehan. "The new white paper investigates the commercial and technical considerations of integrating hydrogen production, storage, and usage within data centres, as well as the technological, space and CO2 reduction challenges to the viability of hydrogen fuel for mission critical power application."

"The Case for On Premise Hydrogen Production in Data Centres for Greenhouse Gas Abatement Benefits" is the latest publication from the GHG Abatement Group, a collaborative effort between i₃ Solutions and US partners, EYP Mission Critical Facilities, Part of Ramboll. Formed as a response to the imperative need for greater sustainability in the sector, the GHG Abatement Group offers objective engineering design and technological insights, with a focus on providing actionable information for infrastructure leaders in commercial, cloud, and enterprise data centre environments.
