Data center (DC) power consumption is a topic of interest and research activities. Articles handle power saving by using virtualization technologies and server consolidation. We assume these technologies as base, but we want DC to profit from local renewable energy sources, reducing CO2 emissions. We propose the idea of integrating DC into smart grid, respecting location dependencies. We present our concept consisting of two individual simulations, a smart grid and a DC simulation, which are both combined to create a holistic simulation. Special focus is placed on a new DC model, the Surrogate DC Model (SDCM), and its functionality and requirements. The SDCM acts as DC, but it can adapt itself and its architecture to different energy scenarios. Goal is to obtain the best possible synergy effects between DC and smart grid in terms of energy exchange and infrastructure usage. Concepts introduced in this paper are work-in-progress.
