  1. Kinetic Backup Power for SRCF Bob Hall, Senior Manager, Applications Engineering Kit Killingsworth, System Sales Engineer

  2. Agenda • Introductions • Phil Reese’s Vision • Who is Active Power • Products • Product value proposition • The 415 VAC Data Center • One Line • Advantages to drive lower PUE • Air side economizing • Technology • Flywheel energy storage • UPS parallel online topology • TCO

  3. A Simple Idea and Vision • The vision of a single man can be a powerful, driving factor • The vision of Stanford to explore alternative solutions for their data center in both power and cooling

  4. Who is Active Power? • Active Power is a leading global manufacturer of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems and modular infrastructure solutions for data centers and other mission critical operations • Our products and servicesprovide tangible operational advantages through an unmatched combination of power density, reliability, and total cost of ownership • Chosen by marquee customers around the world, we help them achieve their most forward thinking data center designs Global Customers

  5. Company Snapshot • Overview • Founded 1992; IPO 2000 • NASDAQ: ACPW • 23% average annual growth since 2005 • 57 country implementations • 3,800+ flywheels shipped • 160+ million hours of field runtime • 900 MW power protection deployed • Innovation • Patented flywheel technology • 100+ global patents issued • Global Operation Centers • Austin, Texas (HQ) • UK • Germany • China • Capabilities • 9001:2008 ISO Manufacturing • Packaging & Integration Services • Design & Project Management • Installation & Maintenance • Partners

  6. The Data Center Paradigm Shift to 415 VAC

  7. The 415V Data Center • MV – LV Transformation at UPS • 5KV / 415V transformer feeds UPS • 415V in/out of UPS • Single phase 230V distributed server racks • Benefits • Transform close to load still allows benefits of small MV cabling • Eliminate PDU transformer cost and efficiency losses • Reduce footprint of many PDUs PDU A 1250KVA 1250KVA 5KV 415VY/230V 1000 KVA 900KW CDB A 415/230V

  8. Major Savings in MV / 415V Distribution 4MW UPS project, expandable to 8 MW • Capex • Reduced wiring cost by $250,000 dollars (14% of total installation) by providing MV as close to the load (point of transformation) as possible • Eliminate 480:208V transformers in PDUs • Reduced MV breakers by $360,000 (11% of total hardware) • Reduced UPS / PDU space consumption by 50% • Opex • Improve efficiency by 2-3% by eliminating transformation steps ($65,000 annual savings @ 3MW; $171,000 annual savings @ 8MW) • Improve power supply (server) efficiency by 1.5-2% operating at higher voltage ($42,000 annual savings @ 3MW; $112,000 @ 8MW) • Total annual savings of $239,000 @ 3MW; $635,000 @ 8MW) • Lower losses = less cooling required

  9. SRCF Abbreviated SLD

  10. PUE – Power Usage Effectiveness How PUE is changing the topologies, functions, and characteristics of UPS in the data center space Total Facility Power PUE = IT Equipment Power

  11. More on PUE • Power usage effectiveness (PUE) is a measure of how efficiently a data center uses its power; specifically, how much of the power is actually used by the computing equipment • PUE is the inverse of data center infrastructure efficiency (DCIE). • An ideal PUE is 1.0 • Anything that isn't considered a computing device in a data center (i.e., lighting, cooling, etc.) falls into the category of facility power usage

  12. Value Propositions to DriveLower PUE • Medium Voltage Application • Highly Efficient, Up to ~98% • Minimal if any AC needed for the UPS, will operate up to 104 F without de-rating • Half the heat rejection of legacy UPS • No special room needed – less construction cost • Power Dense – twice the power in half the space • Lower overall maintenance cost • Air side economizing for facility

  13. Utility Savings of Highly Efficient UPS

  14. UPS Technology and Product Overview to Achieve Lowest PUE and TCO

  15. Power Dense and Reliable Modular * Scalable * Flexible Field Upgradeable * Grows with IT and Business Needs Paralleling Capability for Multi-Megawatt Solutions 1200 kVA 900 kVA 600 kVA 300 kVA

  16. AC AC DC DC DC DC AC AC CleanSource UPS Multi-Module Systems – Z Series MMS One-line Dual Input Option MBP External Only Input Isolation Switches System Cabinet • Built in: • Maintainability • Scalability • Redundancy AC AC DC DC DC DC AC AC Output Isolation Switches System Cabinet

  17. Flywheel UPS Parallel Online Architecture Static Bypass • Conditions power to load • Voltage regulation • Power Factor correction • Harmonic cancellation • Low input current distortion • Overload capability • Unlimited cycling Harmonic Current

  18. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) • Lower installation costs • Flywheel and communication cables as well as wire way provided • Efficiency – up to 98% • Minimal cooling requirements • Less heat rejection • Small footprint, power dense • Low maintenance costs • No battery cooling required • No battery changes • A KNOWN Energy Source
