ABB on Monday announced that it delivers continuous power availability and efficiency savings for Keppel Data Center’s first project in Indonesia – helping to support major ecommerce and data center growth in the country.
Working together with its local partner, PT Vektordaya Mekatrik, ABB is supporting the region’s data center market by specifying its PowerWave 33 energy efficient UPS to provide an uninterruptable source of electrical power to IndoKeppel Data Center 1 (IKDC1), near to Jakarta, which is a joint development between local Indonesian conglomerate Salim Group and Keppel Data Centers.
IKDC1 will be developed over three phases in a 7-hectare data center campus and its first phase will feature a gross floor area of approximately 105,300 square feet. The facility— a high-availability carrier-neutral data center— is targeted for operational delivery in 2021 and will offer future development capacity for clients to scale up their IT infrastructure effectively in Indonesia. When in operation, it will offer concurrent maintainability standards for power and cooling for hyperscale cloud players, financial institutions, and local enterprises.
As the Indonesian colocation data center market grows, sustainable energy solutions that are scalable will be key to offering further capacity with minimal upfront costs. ABB’s PowerWave 33’s scalable UPS enables the efficient generation of revenues as each new phase opens, making it an ideal solution for companies. It is highly suited for medium-sized data centers, office and building power protection, process automation and other critical processes.
Equipped with an online double conversion UPS, the ABB PowerWave 33 is able to deliver continuous power availability to network-critical infrastructures like those being built across Jakarta to accommodate the colocation market growth. Offering maximum power protection, the PowerWave 33 has a small footprint and uses less energy than comparable products, thus delivering significant savings. It offers up to 96% efficiency in double conversion or 99% efficiency in eco-mode across a wide load range.
The PowerWave 33 is available over a model range of 60kW to 500kW and can be configured to operate as a single, standalone UPS or as a multi-cabinet UPS system.
