Abstract

For smart grid, multi-tenant data centers play a major part in the demand response program due to their large energy demand. Emergency demand response is critical in preserving the electrical infrastructure (i.e., the grid) in emergency situations, such as extreme weather events. Further economic demand response programs can stabilize the energy market by shifting the electricity demand to off-peak durations. This part of the book examines the motivations, issues, and challenges involved in multi-tenant data center demand response. Further, it summarizes the formulated problems and the possible solutions.
