Storage

A New Era of Cloud Storage

Cloud storage services have become the backbone of business operations. With the exponential growth in data demands, companies need efficient and sustainable solutions to handle the ever-increasing volume of data. A significant milestone in BMG's journey, aimed at providing our clients with superior, efficient, and reliable cloud storage solutions and services.

The Importance and Challenges of Cloud Storage

As smartphones become ubiquitous and video technology rapidly evolves, the global volume of data is exploding. Data centers, as the heart of data processing and storage, are in higher demand than ever before. Currently, many cloud and hyperscale data centers require over 40 megawatts (MW) of power, and with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), this figure could easily reach 200 MW. The constant power demand for servers, networks, and cooling systems poses significant challenges for data center operators in managing electricity costs.

Why Opt for Renewable Energy?

In response to these challenges, major tech companies like Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Meta are adopting innovative methods to leverage renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, fuel cells, and hydroelectric power, to run their data centers.

By using renewable energy, data centers can meet customer demands while complying with environmental regulations. This approach also reduces reliance on local utilities and helps balance the power grid when intermittent renewable energy sources are unavailable. Collaborating with utilities ensures data centers have access to backup power when needed, benefiting both parties.

Future Directions

As AI becomes more integrated into data centers, global energy consumption is rising. According to Morgan Stanley, data centers worldwide are expected to increase their energy consumption from 15 terawatt hours (TWh) to 46 TWh this year. In the United States alone, IT equipment power consumption is projected to grow from 21 gigawatts (GW) in 2023 to 50 GW by 2030. This growth presents significant challenges for the data center industry.
