  4. 3. A case study on the integration of excess heat from Data Centres in the Stockholm district heating system

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Arianna Tofani; [2022]
    Keywords : heat recovery; district heating; circular economy; data centres; excess heat; värmeåtervinning; fjärrvärme; cirkulär ekonomi; datacenter; överskottsvärme;

    Abstract : The data centre industry is becoming more and more important due to the rapid increase of digitalisation in our society. However, data centres are large electricity consumers since electricity is needed for both the Information Technology (IT) equipment and the cooling systems, as a certain temperature must be maintained in the server rooms in order to guarantee service operations.
