How can data centers and IT infrastructure help *balance* the grid while reducing carbon emissions and costs? We have some ideas.
IT service providers can enjoy lower cost and lower carbon operations by having more details on how, when and where to operate their data centres, says Julien Lavalley from Electricity Maps View full piece: foresightmedia.com/story/sH2fqh...
Electricity Maps is nine years old today! 🎂 Thank you to all our customers, partners, and community for all you do to help push data-driven decarbonization forward. ⚡️ Here's @corradio.bsky.social's first commit, from May 21, 2016: github.com/electricitym...

Check out our 72h view 🗺️! Perfect for tracking Europe's wind recovery. While a dunkelflaute is rare, the data shows how quickly renewables bounce back. Here's how the German grid transformed: Wind: 66.82% of demand Carbon: 592→227 g/kWh Price: €936→€13.96/MWh Exports: 11.36GW Hydro Storage: 2.78GW
A major dunkelflaute hit Europe at 5pm yesterday: wind & solar generation dropped while energy prices hit €936/MWh in Denmark/Germany. A reminder of the need for load shifting, diverse energy sources and storage solutions for the winter months. #EnergyMarkets #Renewables #Dunkelflaute #Germany
