1 Suvilahti Data Centre New-Build Case-Study: Operationalizing District Heating and Cooling in large Data Centre in Former Electricity Station Juha Sipilä Helsingin Energia

2 Finnish ICT provider with decades of experience. Company s product offering includes ICT management and operator services. The owner and the builder of Suvilahti data center complex. Europe s leading IT company #1 in Managed Services employees in 42 countries. Suvilahti s main tenant. Suvilahti is one of Atos strategic data centers & cloud services centers globally. One of the largest energy companies in Finland. Supplies electric energy to about 400,000 customers in Finland and covers more than 90 percent of the heat demand of the capital city with district heat. Builder and supplier of electricity, district cooling, heating and heat recovery infrastructure. Owner of the old electricity station.

3 World leading in CHP Finland Helsinki

4 As early as in 1913, the director of the electricity board proposed combined heat and power generation. In 1953, the city council made a decision to build an extensive district heating network in Helsinki. Currently, 93% of the city s heating needs are met with district heat, which is produced in a diverse way at four power plants, heat pump plants and peak load plants. Energy efficiency has improved further when district cooling is produced in the same processes.

10 Green IT in Data Center Environments and Finland General Development Potential in Finland As a concept, Green IT is yet to be fully defined and financial criteria continue to dominate - greenness is seen as an image factor Shared operational policies for greenness are being determined on the international level in the framework of both the LEED construction certifications and LEED data center certifications. There are three significant trends in new, green data center constructions: Cloud computing Green IT Sustainable development Pacesetters are building genuinely green solutions today From the technological perspective, greenness is seen as energy efficiency and is further developed in order to: Raise the operating temperature of devices Improve the centralization of operations and consolidation of technology Achieve capacity through virtualization The level of energy technology education and research in Finland is very high, as is the practical level of know-how (for example in Vaasa, Tampere and Lappeenranta). There are very ecological (brown field) operational environments which are nearly fit for use, originating from the structural changes in the forest industry as well as plenty of space for new construction projects (green field). Finland also has plenty of locally produced, genuinely green, renewable and emission-free energy, for example in the proximity of waterways. Other forms of renewable energy are being constantly developed and their availability continues to improve. The construction projects of data centers and the technical infrastructure they require can be initiated with a clean slate, which enables the use of state-of-the-art technology and expertise. All international service and equipment providers are locally available, like ABB, Eaton etc. LEED: Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Source: Invest in Finland
