DATA CENTER AND TELECOM FACILITIES
DATA CENTER AND TELECOM AIR SIDE ECONOMIZER Requirements: • This rebate is for the installation of an air-side economizer to offset electric cooling in a data center, telecom facility, or similar facility that has a 24/7 cooling load that does not already have some air-side economizer functionality. • Air-side economizer must be automatically controlled based on outside air temperature or enthalpy. • Redundant and backup cooling equipment does not count towards the total tons of cooling. • Process loads in manufacturing facilities are not eligible but may qualify for a custom incentive.. • Air side economizer limited to offsetting ≤ 100 tons of mechanical cooling. Custom incentives may be available for larger systems. Application Measure Description Code Rebate Unit Retrofit Air Side Economizer, Data Center/Telecom PS4776* $170 Ton * Complete Table J on the Supplemental Data Sheet. ENERGY-EFFICIENT DRYCOOLER FOR DATA CENTER AND TELECOM Requirements: • This rebate is for installing a water-side economizer that is automatically controlled to enable economizer operation based on outside air temperature. • Water-side economizer must be installed new and is not for replacement of an existing water-side economizer. • Only for data centers and telecom facilities with direct expansion (DX) computer room air conditioning (CRAC) units. (Drycoolers for chilled water systems may be eligible for custom incentives.) • Redundant CRAC units that are not in operation do not count toward the total capacity (i.e., the total capacity of redundant, non-operational CRAC units should not be included when calculating the total capacity). • Provide documentation of total rated capacity of data center cooling system. Documentation should include an inventory of CRAC units with quantity, capacity, manufacturer, and model number of each unit. Application Measure Description Code Rebate Unit Retrofit Energy-Efficient Drycooler, Data Center/Telecom PS2305* $130 Ton * Complete Table K on the Supplemental Data Sheet. • Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or rectifier must be installed in a data center, telecom facility, or similar space that has computer, router, switch, or similar IT equipment. UPS systems for individual desktop computers or critical manufacturing loads are not eligible. • Efficient UPS and rectifier systems must be ≥ 94% full load efficiency. Provide a spec sheet to confirm efficiency of the new UPS or rectifier. • The UPS or rectifier system being replaced must be ≤ 90% efficient at current IT load. Provide a spec sheet, metered data, or screen shots of UPS or rectifier controls to confirm existing UPS or rectifier efficiency. • The kW for the rebate is the kW of IT equipment load (i.e., output of the UPS or rectifier).
