Green Infrastructure Engineering Solution for Data Centers Driven by Intelligent Computing

In the era of rapid iteration of the digital economy, computing power has become the core productive force. As the core carrier of computing power, the safety, efficiency and green performance of a data center’s infrastructure directly determine the stable operation of digital services and the sustainable development of the industry. For the era of intelligent computing and in compliance with the concept of green and low-carbon development, we hereby launch the General Data Center Infrastructure Construction Engineering Solution. Covering full scenarios and full processes, it provides standardized, implementable and highly adaptable guidance for the construction of various data centers, and helps build a safe, reliable, low-carbon and efficient computing power infrastructure.

I. General Principles of the Solution: Anchoring the Construction Direction with Five Core Principles

The solution is formulated in compliance with five core principles, balancing current demands and future iteration:

• Safety and Reliability: Build a highly redundant and available system to eliminate single points of failure and ensure 7×24 uninterrupted business operation.
• Computing Power Adaptability: Flexibly respond to loads of different scales, and adapt to full-scenario deployment from general-purpose servers to high-density computing power clusters.
• Green and Low-Carbon: Implement the low-carbon concept throughout the entire lifecycle, align with the national dual-carbon strategy, and achieve optimal energy efficiency.
• Intelligent and Controllable: Build an intelligent management and control system to improve O&M efficiency and reduce operational risks.
• Elastic Scalability: Support phased construction and on-demand capacity expansion to avoid redundant investment and adapt to business iteration needs.

II. Overall Design: Building a Full-Lifecycle Green and Intelligent Computing Power Infrastructure

With full-lifecycle management as the core logic, the solution breaks the restrictions of scenarios, scales and regions, promotes the standardization, generalization and low-carbon development of data center construction, and focuses its core objectives on six dimensions:

• Safety and Reliability: Adopt redundant architecture design and build a security protection system in compliance with national specifications.
• Computing Power Adaptability: Configure elastic power capacity to achieve collaborative adaptation between infrastructure and upper-layer business.
• Green Energy Efficiency: Realize full-link energy saving, and strive to meet the national first-class energy efficiency grade.
• Low-Carbon Development: Implement full-process carbon emission management and control, and apply renewable energy on a large scale.
• Intelligent Management and Control: Realize global perception and intelligent regulation for refined O&M.
• Elastic Scalability: Adopt modular design to support phased construction and on-demand capacity expansion.

III. Core Design: Four Major Infrastructure Systems to Consolidate the Foundation of Computing Power
Centering on the core functions of the data center, the solution provides a generalized engineering design for the four major systems, namely power supply and distribution, cooling, computer room space, and network cabling, balancing safety and energy saving, as well as adaptability and expansion.

• Power Supply and Distribution System: High Reliability and Low Loss: Based on dual-circuit redundant utility power access, the system is equipped with high-efficiency energy-saving transformers, modular Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), backup diesel generator sets and energy storage systems, to achieve uninterrupted switching of power supply, refined load management and control, reduce energy consumption at the source, and ensure stable power supply. The cabinets are equipped with intelligent Power Distribution Units (PDU), which collect energy consumption data in real time to support energy efficiency optimization.
• Cooling System: Nature Cooling Priority, Optimal Energy Efficiency: Following the principle of "maximizing the utilization of natural cooling sources", the solution adapts cooling schemes to different scenarios: air-cooled air conditioners with hot and cold aisle containment for low and medium-density areas, and high-efficiency solutions such as liquid cooling and backplane air conditioning for high-density areas. Meanwhile, it optimizes water-saving design and builds a waste heat recovery system to realize cascaded utilization of energy and greatly reduce cooling energy consumption.
• Computer Room Space and Cabinets: Standardization and Elasticity: A standardized modular layout is adopted, with the space divided into the main computer room area and auxiliary area by function, supporting phased construction and independent operation. The cabinets adopt standard specifications to adapt to all types of IT equipment, and are equipped with a complete cable management and safety control system to ensure the physical security of the computer room and the stable operation of equipment.
• Network and Cabling: High Bandwidth and Scalability: A flat and highly redundant network architecture is built, with redundant configuration of core equipment and links to avoid single points of failure. Standardized pre-terminated cabling is adopted, with separation of strong and weak current and sufficient reserved ports, to realize "one-time cabling, on-demand expansion". At the same time, a complete network security protection system is equipped to ensure the security of data transmission.

IV. Green & Low-Carbon: Implementing the Dual-Carbon Strategy Throughout the Entire Process

Adhering to the concept of "green first", the solution builds a full-lifecycle low-carbon technology system to realize refined management and control of carbon emissions:

• Renewable Energy Application: Build distributed power generation systems, expand green power access channels, and increase the proportion of renewable energy use.
• Full-Link Energy Efficiency Optimization: Build an intelligent optimization system to dynamically adjust the operating parameters of core systems and eliminate redundant energy consumption.
• Full-Lifecycle Management and Control: Adopt prefabricated construction and low-carbon building materials in the construction phase, accurately calculate carbon emissions in the operation phase, and realize equipment recycling and reuse in the decommissioning phase.
• Standardized Operation and Management: Establish an energy management system, incorporate energy efficiency indicators into the assessment, and realize the normalization of energy conservation and carbon reduction.

V. Intelligent Operation and Maintenance: Full-Closed-Loop Management and Control to Improve O&M Efficiency
Centering on the core vision of "intelligent computing for the future", a universal intelligent management and control platform is built to form a full-closed-loop Operation and Maintenance (O&M) system:

• Full-Element Visualization: Realize unified management of all systems including power supply and distribution, cooling, security and protection on a single screen, with global visibility and real-time monitoring.
• Predictive Maintenance: Predict equipment failure risks based on big data algorithms, realizing the transformation from "post-failure emergency repair" to "pre-failure prevention".
• Intelligent Inspection: Replace manual inspection to achieve 24/7 uninterrupted coverage, improving inspection efficiency and accuracy.
• Intelligent Emergency Linkage: Pre-set emergency plans, automatically trigger the linkage mechanism in case of failure for rapid disposal, to ensure continuous business operation.

VI. Project Management and Benefit Evaluation
6.1 Full-Process Project Management

Following the principle of "overall planning and phased implementation", a full-process management and control system for quality, safety and schedule covering design, procurement, construction and acceptance is established to ensure high-standard and on-time delivery of the project. Complete O&M training and technical support are provided after delivery.
6.2 Highlight of Three Major Benefits

• Economic Benefits: Full-link energy saving reduces operating costs, and modular design cuts initial investment, improving the return on investment.
