Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data center investment estimation, and in particular to a method, device and computer equipment for data center investment estimation based on carbon quota. Background Art
[0002] As one of the industries with high energy consumption and high carbon emissions, the demand for energy conservation and carbon reduction in data centers is gradually increasing. Traditional data center energy conservation transformation mainly focuses on reducing power consumption by optimizing hardware configuration and improving energy efficiency, thereby achieving energy conservation. However, the economic benefits of such energy-saving transformation are often limited to direct savings in electricity bills, and fail to fully consider the resulting carbon reduction benefits, especially the potential benefits obtained through carbon trading mechanisms.
[0003] As a high-energy-consuming industry, the management of carbon emission quotas for data centers is becoming increasingly strict. Data centers that actively reduce their carbon emissions through energy-saving transformation can sell their surplus free carbon emission quotas to achieve carbon emission reduction benefits. Therefore, energy-saving transformation of data centers should be based on saving electricity bills and adding carbon emission reduction benefits.
[0004] However, the existing data center energy-saving transformation investment calculation method mainly focuses on the direct economic benefits brought by the reduction of electricity consumption, and does not systematically evaluate carbon emission reduction as a key source of economic benefits. The carbon emission reduction after energy-saving transformation and the possible carbon trading benefits are not fully incorporated into investment decisions, resulting in an underestimation of the returns of transformation projects.
[0005] At the same time, the existing investment calculation method does not fully consider the potential of the carbon trading mechanism. Driven by the "dual carbon" policy, the carbon market is becoming increasingly active. The remaining carbon quotas obtained by data centers through energy-saving transformation can be sold through the carbon trading market to obtain additional income. However, the existing technical solutions have failed to effectively incorporate this income into the investment calculation model, ignoring the "added value" brought by carbon emission reduction.
[0006] In traditional investment measurement methods, the calculation of carbon emission reduction is often rough, and there is a lack of accurate models to quantify the economic benefits brought about by carbon emission reduction. In other words, traditional investment measurement methods do not measure the two parallel measurement standards of carbon emission reduction benefits and electricity saving benefits of data centers together, making it impossible to evaluate investment benefits from a more comprehensive perspective. Summary of the invention
[0007] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a method for calculating data center investment based on carbon quotas.

[0069] Embodiment 1
[0070] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1, a method for calculating data center investment based on carbon quotas is
[0071] Step 110, the investment calculation of the data center is divided into three calculation models: carbon emission reduction benefit, electricity cost saving benefit and capital financing structure.
[0072] In one embodiment, the carbon emission reduction benefits and electricity cost savings benefits after the transformation of the data center are used as two parallel main measurement criteria to evaluate the investment benefits from a more comprehensive perspective. At the same time, considering the capital structure financing situation, a capital financing structure calculation model is also added, so that the comprehensive economic benefits after the transformation of the data center can be calculated more comprehensively and accurately, providing more precise guidance for investment decisions on energy-saving transformation of data centers.
[0073] Step 120: Calculate the carbon emission reduction benefits after the data center transformation based on the carbon emission reduction benefit calculation model.
[0074] In one embodiment, the step of calculating the carbon emission reduction benefit after the data center transformation based on the carbon emission reduction benefit calculation model includes:
[0075] Obtain the carbon emissions of the data center before transformation;
[0076] Calculate the carbon emissions of the data center after the transformation based on the historical carbon emissions data of the data center, industry standards and expected effects of energy-saving transformation;
[0077] The carbon emission reduction is calculated by using the carbon emission of the data center before the transformation and the carbon emission of the data center after the transformation;
[0078] Based on existing policies and market trends, combined with the country's emission reduction targets for the industry and the policy orientation of local governments, the amount of free carbon quotas in the next few years is predicted, and the amount of carbon quotas that can be sold is calculated based on the carbon emission reduction and free carbon quotas;
[0079] Based on the price data of the existing carbon market and the development trend of the carbon market, the carbon quota price that can be obtained from the remaining salable carbon quota after the data center transformation is calculated, and the carbon emission reduction benefits are calculated based on the salable carbon quota and the carbon quota price.
[0080] In this embodiment, by analyzing government policies, the free carbon quotas that may be obtained after the transformation of the data center are predicted in the carbon emission reduction benefit calculation model. Specifically, the data center will obtain a certain number of free carbon quotas according to the carbon emission reduction achieved after the energy-saving transformation and the carbon emission quota allocation rules of the national or local government. These free quotas can be sold through the carbon trading market, thereby bringing additional economic benefits to the data center. At the same time, the carbon emission reduction benefit calculation model is based on the price data of the existing carbon market, combined with the development trend of the carbon market, to calculate the market price that can be obtained for the remaining carbon quotas after the energy-saving transformation of the data center. The current market price of carbon quotas can be obtained by analyzing the actual transaction data of carbon markets in various places. For the future carbon quota price, the method of the present application can also introduce a market prediction model, combined with policy changes, carbon trading market supply and demand and other macroeconomic factors, to predict the future carbon quota price, so as to evaluate the potential benefits of carbon trading. The above-mentioned market prediction model involves the establishment of real-time monitoring and prediction models for the carbon trading market to help data centers fully consider the future market trend of carbon quotas in investment decisions.

[0096] The pricing information of the electricity market is obtained, and the electricity cost saving benefit is calculated according to the pricing information of the electricity market and the saved electricity.
[0097] In this embodiment, the electricity cost saving benefit calculation model is based on the electricity market pricing in different regions to calculate the electricity cost savings after the energy-saving transformation of the data center. Combined with the difference in electricity prices in various provinces, the data center adjusts the economic benefit evaluation of the energy-saving transformation plan according to its location.
[0098] Step 140, based on the capital financing structure calculation model, calculate the loan interest after the data center transformation.
[0099] In one embodiment, the step of calculating the loan interest after the data center transformation based on the capital financing structure calculation model includes:
[0100] Based on the loan amount, loan term and interest rate required for the data center renovation project, calculate the loan interest after the data center renovation.
[0101] In this embodiment, when calculating the total investment of the energy-saving renovation project, the funding source is divided into two parts: capital and loan amount through the funding financing structure calculation model. According to the funding status, borrowing conditions and financing strategy of the data center, the investment structure is optimized and the loan interest is calculated.
[0102] Step 150: Calculate the comprehensive economic benefit of transforming the data center based on the carbon emission reduction benefit, the electricity cost saving benefit and the loan interest.
[0103] In one embodiment, in the step of calculating the comprehensive economic benefit of transforming the data center based on the carbon emission reduction benefit, the electricity cost saving benefit and the loan interest,
[0104] The comprehensive economic benefits include financial indicators such as investment payback period, net present value, and internal rate of return.
