Course Summary

Energy expenditures account for the vast majority of the operating costs during a data centre lifetime, and this fact is becoming critical in order to ensure business profitability.

This 2-day green data centre design course will equip participants with in-depth knowledge of SS564 and Green Mark for New and Existing Data Centre.

The 2-day course will also include design best practices and case studies to empower participants with knowledge and ideas  to green their data centres

  • Data Centre (DC) Overview and Trends
  • SS564
  • Green Mark for DC Overview
  • GM for New DC
  • GM for Existing DC
  • DC Air Conditioning System Design
  • DC Electrical System Design
  • DC Operations
  • DC Performance Monitoring

Course Objective

At the end of the course, the participants will be able to:

  • Understand Green data centre standards such as Green Mark for new and existing data centres
  • Apply the best practices in chiller plant, computer room air-conditioning, lighting and uninterruptible power system design
  • Optimise, monitor and maintain the data centres at peak energy efficiency

Target Audience

Course Summary

The continued quest for higher thermal efficiencies has resulted in innovative modifications to conventional power plants. These used to function on either a pure gas or vapour power cycle and individually produced power. The large quantity of heat generated is dumped into the atmosphere or large water bodies which act as heat sinks.

In Singapore, more than 80% of the power generated is from natural gas-fired combined cycle power plants due to their proven superior thermal efficiency and relatively cleaner fuel.

This module is tailored in the backdrop of the above and aims to provide comprehensive fundamentals of Combined Heat and Power Plants targeted at industrial professionals operating under Singapore regulatory requirements.

Course Objective

Participants will be equipped with the understanding of:

  1. CHP Basics
  2. Thermal Concepts of CHP
  3. Gas Power Cycle (Brayton Cycle)
  4. Vapour Power Cycles
  5. Power Equipment and Systems
  6. Cogeneration systems
  7. The Feasibility Study and Regulatory Issues
  8. Industrial Site Visit (Trigeneration Plant)

Target Audience

  • Energy Managers
  • Management Representatives
  • Facilities/Energy Managers, Executives and Supervisors

Course Summary

Steam and compressed air systems consume significant energy in industrial plants. In addition, there are many opportunities to recover waste heat from various industrial processes. Therefore, energy efficient design and appropriate operation strategies for
these systems have the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption in industrial facilities. Major topics discussed include the function of the various components in steam and compressed air systems, heat and mass transfer analysis, evaluation of system performance, potential for heat recovery, influence of different variables on energy optimization, energy efficient design, operation and control strategies, sustainable practices, selection and arrangement of heat recovery devices, operations and maintenance.

Course Objective

Participants will be equipped with the understanding of:

  1. Understand the functions and components of compressed air and steam systems
  2. Analyse energy performance characteristics and identify potential energy saving opportunities in compressed air and steam systems
  3. Select heat recovery devices and analyse heat transfer performance
  4. Operate the above systems in an energy efficient manner

Target Audience

  • Energy Managers
  • Management Representatives
  • Facilities/Energy Managers, Executives and Supervisors
