On November 20, 2024, the 12th Data Center Standards Conference, themed "The Light of AI, Illuminating the Future," was held at the China National Convention Center in Beijing. As a leading platform for technological advancement in the data center industry, the conference brought together experts, researchers, and corporate representatives from around the world. Top enterprises across various sectors shared insights into emerging trends, innovative strategies, and practical applications, while showcasing the latest technologies and solutions for data centers.
As a leading provider of cooling and heat exchange solutions for data centers, Shanghai Accessen was invited to participate in the conference, presenting its latest advancements in liquid cooling technology. The company exhibited a range of cutting-edge products and integrated system solutions, including prefabricated integrated cooling stations, liquid cooling hydraulic modules, liquid cooling Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs), prefabricated liquid cooling systems, and the AQ/AA series of AHRI-certified plate heat exchangers.
The liquid cooling hydraulic module and Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) represent significant advancements by Accessen in liquid cooling technologies. These solutions feature standardized design frameworks and modular construction, enabling flexible configurations and seamless scalability. This design approach effectively reduces cooling energy consumption in data centers, achieving power usage effectiveness (PUE) levels below 1.1.
In a pilot liquid cooling project for a data center, Accessen integrated AI-driven temperature control, leveraging comprehensive datasets from data center operations, IT infrastructure, and cloud services for model training. The company pioneered a workload-aware energy optimization method tailored to cloud service demands, which successfully reduced PUE and achieved an annual energy savings of 1 billion kWh per one million servers.
The prefabricated integrated cooling station solution was a key innovation presented by Accessen. Utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM), all equipment and structural components were prefabricated and integrated into a complete system. Structural components were manufactured and pre-assembled in specialized facilities, then transported as modules and assembled on-site, significantly reducing the complexity of on-site construction and installation. This approach enables rapid deployment and delivery. In addition to accelerating cooling system installation and reducing commissioning time, the solution also addresses scenarios where environmental constraints limit on-site operations.
Shanghai Accessen engaged in in-depth discussions with industry experts on emerging technologies and best practices in the data center sector. Throughout 2024, Accessen deployed a range of liquid cooling hydraulic modules and prefabricated integrated cooling station solutions for multiple projects, including data centers in Guizhou, Wuhu, Kunshan, Jiangsu, the Philippines, and a power battery facility in Malaysia, as well as for Yangzhou Mobile and Guangzhou Mobile. These deployments reflect the company’s ongoing efforts to iteratively enhance and refine its prefabricated technologies and solutions.
Dedicated to becoming a leading provider of prefabricated cooling solutions for data centers, Accessen actively participated in the conference’s dialogue on intelligent computing infrastructure. By leveraging innovative technologies, the company continues to drive progress in AI-oriented data center development and contribute to a more sustainable digital future.
