Data Center Paired with Housing Development Meets City's Future Needs with Clean Energy Solution

數據中心與住房開發相結合,滿足城市未來對清潔能源解決方案的需求

OAKLAND, Calif., Nov. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, a partnership led by real estate developer Westbank and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) announced a proposal for an innovative net zero community. Located in downtown San Jose, the project will develop three new data centers and upwards of 4,000 residential units. The partners shared the news alongside San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan at PG&E's 2024 Innovation Summit.

加利福尼亞州奧克蘭,2024年11月13日 /PRNewswire/ -- 今天,由房地產開發公司Westbank和太平洋煤氣與電力公司(PG&E)領導的合作伙伴關係宣佈了一項創新的淨零社區提案。該項目位於聖荷西市中心,將開發三個新的數據中心和超過4000個住宅單元。合作伙伴在PG&E的2024年創新峯會上與聖荷西市長馬特·馬漢共同分享了這一資訊。

The proposal would transform downtown San Jose by responding to demand for both artificial intelligence (AI)-driven data centers and housing. The clean energy solution also supports San Jose's commitment to a net zero future.

該提案將通過滿足對人工智能(AI)驅動的數據中心和住房的需求,改變聖荷西市中心。清潔能源解決方案還支持聖荷西對淨零未來的承諾。

"San Jose is no stranger to innovation that changes the world," said Mayor Matt Mahan. "We are a laboratory for the future — and in our city, that future is net zero. This project proposed by Westbank and PG&E has the potential to change the way that our cities are built, developed and powered for the better, and we're going to do everything we can at City Hall to support its success."

「聖荷西並不陌生於改變世界的創新,」市長馬特·馬漢說。「我們是未來的實驗室——在我們的城市,未來是淨零。Westbank和PG&E提出的這個項目有潛力改變我們城市的建設、開發和供能方式,我們將在市政廳竭盡所能支持它的成功。」

PG&E will power the area, delivering approximately 200 megawatts of energy for the three data centers. A district energy system will connect the data centers and surrounding community. The system allows excess heat from the data centers to be harnessed and repurposed to provide heating and hot water to neighboring buildings.

PG&E將爲該地區供電,爲三個數據中心提供約200兆瓦的電力。一個區域能源系統將連接數據中心和周邊社區。該系統允許將數據中心的多餘熱量利用並重新利用,爲鄰近建築提供採暖和熱水。

Using the excess heat, rather than letting it go to waste, reduces the investment needed to build out the electric, low-carbon system. Additional benefits include:

利用多餘熱量,而不是讓其浪費,減少了建設電力低碳系統所需的投資。其他好處包括:

  • More efficient use of the electricity powering the data centers.
  • Lower electricity costs for tenants connected to the district energy system.
  • Helping to reduce the carbon footprints of the buildings connected to the district energy system.
  • Supporting more cost effective and sustainable future development in downtown San Jose.
  • 更高效地使用爲數據中心提供電力的電力。
  • 爲連接到區域能源系統的租戶降低電力成本。
  • 幫助減少與區域能源系統連接的建築物的碳足跡。
  • 支持在聖何塞市中心更具成本效益和可持續的未來發展。

"This initiative is about addressing the need for housing and AI infrastructure while at the same time creating more inspiring communities that respond meaningfully to climate change. In PG&E we have found a partner who shares our vision and commitment. We're looking forward to realizing this initiative together," said Westbank CEO Ian Gillespie.

"這個倡議是解決住房和人工智能基礎設施需求,同時創造更具啓發性的社區,從而有效應對氣候變化。在PG&E,我們找到了一個共享我們願景和承諾的合作伙伴。我們期待與他們一起實現這個倡議,"Westbank首席執行官Ian Gillespie說。

"Our proposed net zero community with Westbank and the city of San Jose represents the future for our hometowns. It's also an example of how strong partnerships help us enable California's prosperity. California is leading the energy transition for our nation and the people of PG&E are proud to power that growth," said PG&E Corporation CEO Patti Poppe.

"我們與Westbank和聖何塞市提出的淨零社區代表了我們家鄉的未來。這也是強大夥伴關係如何幫助我們實現加利福尼亞繁榮的一個例子。加利福尼亞在國家能源轉型中處於領先地位,PG&E的員工爲支持這一增長感到自豪,"PG&E公司首席執行官Patti Poppe說。

Plug and Play, a global innovation platform, plans to be the first tenant in the proposed community with their AI Center of Excellence. PG&E is a founding partner of this center, which will include an accelerator, exhibition halls and a learning center for students and small business owners.

Plug and Play,一個全球創新平台,計劃成爲提議社區的首個租戶,設立他們的人工智能卓越中心。PG&E是該中心的創始合作伙伴,該中心將包括一個加速器、展覽廳和爲學生及小企業主提供的學習中心。
