Abstract

In Internet data center operations, the operators are faced with high energy cost and carbon emission. Moreover, for socially responsible Internet data center operators, they are expected to minimize energy cost and carbon emission simultaneously. Since smart microgrids have many advantages in supporting the operations of Internet data centers (e.g., low electricity distribution loss, high utilization ratio in renewable energy), we consider the problem of minimizing the long-term weighted summation of energy cost and carbon emission for Internet data center operators in smart microgrids. To achieve the above aim, we propose an efficient operation algorithm considering the uncertainties in renewable generation output, electricity price, workload, and carbon emission rate.

Here, a simple SLA is adopted as in [26]. Other more complicated SLAs would be considered in future work.

For fast-responding diesel generators, its minimum on/off periods could be regarded as zero and ramping-up/-down rate could be assumed to be \(\infty \) [30]. Thus, some constraints about minimum on/off periods and ramping-up/-down rate are neglected. In addition, due to the lack of public knowledge about start-up cost of diesel generators, we also neglect such cost. More realistic generation cost models would be considered in future work.

E.g., the average workload is smaller than 2 million requests/h, while the average workload of Google search is 121 million requests/h.
