This document is the first deliverable of the CATALYST first technical work package, namely, WP2: “Pre-CATALYST Results Analysis and Design” and it reports the work conducted in two tasks: Task 2.1: Use cases & pre-CATALYST Results Analysis and Task 2.2: CATALYST framework architecture design. This deliverable describes the preliminary set of the CATALYST specifications and … Continued
This report provides the Green Data CentreAssessment Toolkit, to support the self-assessment of data centres in terms of their environmental sustainability. In the CATALYST context a toolkit is perceived as a set of tools alongside a process to navigate through and showcase their use. Essentially, the Toolkit constitutes a straightforward and easy-to-use process to identify, … Continued
This document presents a refined and detailed version of the CATALYST framework architecture and updates on CATALYST data model, the initial version of which has been reported in D2.1 CATALYST.D2.3.ENG_.WP2_.V1.0
This documentis the first of a series of three deliverables detailing the activities of CATALYST carried out towards achieving information technology-related load balancing optimization at federated data centres’ level. Building upon the technological and research outcomes of the FP7 projects GEYSER and DOLFIN, CATALYST targets at upscaling and further maturing the data centres’ federation load … Continued
This document is the second of a series of three deliverables detailing the activities of CATALYST carried out towards achieving information technology-related load balancing optimization at federated data centres’ level. Building upon the technological and research outcomes of the FP7 projects GEYSER[1]and DOLFIN[2], CATALYST targets at upscaling and further maturing the data centres’ federation load … Continued
The CATALYST framework applies efficient management of Data Centre flexibility assets under operational, financial, and sustainability profits. The management of execution of virtual Information Technology (IT) loads understood as Virtual Containers (VCs) or simply Virtual Machines (VMs) is a potential source of Data Centre (DC) flexibility, handled and managed by the central Data Centre optimization … Continued
This report describes the models that were developed to estimate and elicitate the electrical and thermal flexibility of Data Centres (DCs) in terms of achieving an optimal integration with smart energy grids CATALYST.D4.1.TUC_.WP4_.v1.0
This deliverable reports the work carried out in the direction of defining models for forecasting the electrical energy consumption, electrical and thermal energy production as well as the flexibility of a Data Centre (DC) considering different time frames and system level granularities. The time frames of the forecasting process are the day-ahead (i.e. 24 hours … Continued
This deliverable reports the work carried out for defining and implementing an ICT solution that allows the DC to optimally manage its electrical and thermal energy flexibility. This solution supports DCs to achieve better integration with the electrical and heat grids and contribute to the fulfilment of sustainability objectives. CATALYST.D4.3.TUC_.WP4_.v1.0
