It puts data centers in control of their energy, letting them offer capacity back to the grid, and to say when and at what price.How it worksUsing Eaton’s UPS-as-a-Reserve, the UPS works as part of a virtual power plant to enable data centers to take part in the high-value FCR and demand-side market. The UPS can be used to regulate demand from the grid, as well as for up and down stream charging, to discharge the battery back to the grid. Energy providers will compensate data center operators for abstaining from energy consumption when needed to maintain grid frequency. This means data centers can generate revenue from their UPS.A data center could expect typical returns up toper MW of power allocated to grid support per year.€50,0007EATON 3ph UPS technologies - TCO September 2018
