Europe’s First Microgrid: Pure DC in Dublin, Ireland

Europe's first microgrid in the data centre space has launched at Pure DC's site in Dublin. Operating off-grid and capable of remaining so, the facility on its completion will have an installed capacity of 110MW - 30MW generated from each permanent energy centre, and 20MW from a battery energy storage system (BESS).
