Abstract :

In response to the escalating demand for computing resources in modern datacenters, it has become imperative to address this challenge efficiently while concurrently minimizing energy consumption and costs. Recent advancements in power market operations have introduced innovative demand-response programs, where electricity consumers, including datacenters, can adjust their power usage in response to provider requests, thereby optimizing monetary expenses. Among these programs, regulation service (RS) reserves stand out for datacenters due to their lucrative credit gain potential and the inherent flexibility of datacenters in regulating power consumption. Consequently, it is crucial to devise effective bidding strategies for datacenters to actively participate in emerging power markets, coupled with dynamic power management policies that are attuned to real-time power market requirements. In this paper, we introduce ECOGreen, a comprehensive strategy designed to holistically optimize t
