Sequential Operating Simulation of Solid State Transformer-Driven Next-Generation 800 VDC Data Center

Artificial-intelligence (AI) workloads are driving rapid growth in data-center electricity use and rack power density, increasing demand for power-delivery systems that are efficient and robust to fast load transients. Conventional uninterruptible power supply (UPS) based AC distribution chains involve multiple conversion stages and line-frequency transformers, which compound losses and are less compatible with dynamic AI power profiles. Although solid-state transformers (SSTs) and 800 VDC distribution architecture are widely discussed, implementable topology/control details, and long-horizon validation with realistic operating profiles remain limited. This paper develops an SST-driven 800 VDC architecture that converts 10 kV MVAC to an 800V LVDC bus using a three-phase H-bridge AC/DC stage cascaded with a dual-active-bridge (DAB) DC/DC stage. A coordinated closed-loop control scheme, combining rectifier voltage/current regulation and DAB phase-shift control, is designed to maintain DC-bus voltage stability. The proposed system is implemented on the real-time digital simulation (RTDS) platform and evaluated via sequential simulations using real-world day- and month-scale operating profiles of data centers, benchmarked against a UPS supply chain. Numerical studies demonstrate tight 800 VDC regulation, reduced input-side energy consumption compared with the UPS baseline, and satisfactory power-quality performance. A capacitance sensitivity test quantifies tradeoffs between DC-bus ripple and low-frequency input-power oscillations, yielding a practical capacitance range for design. Overall, the work provides a reproducible evaluation workflow and actionable guidance for next-generation AI data centers.

Stochastic Dynamic Optimal Power Flow in Distribution Network with Distributed Renewable Energy and Battery Energy Storage

The penetration of distributed renewable energy (DRE) greatly raises the risk of distribution network operation such as peak shaving and voltage stability. Battery energy storage (BES) has been widely accepted as the most potential application to cope with the challenge of high penetration of DRE. To cope with the uncertainties and variability of DRE, a stochastic day-ahead dynamic optimal power flow (DOPF) and its algorithm are proposed. The overall economy is achieved by fully considering the DRE, BES, electricity purchasing and active power losses. The rainflow algorithm-based cycle counting method of BES is incorporated in the DOPF model to capture the cell degradation, greatly extending the expected BES lifetime and achieving a better economy. DRE scenarios are generated to consider the uncertainties and correlations based on the Copula theory. To solve the DOPF model, we propose a Lagrange relaxation-based algorithm, which has a significantly reduced complexity with respect to the existing techniques. For this reason, the proposed algorithm enables much more scenarios incorporated in the DOPF model and better captures the DRE uncertainties and correlations. Finally, numerical studies for the day-ahead DOPF in the IEEE 123-node test feeder are presented to demonstrate the merits of the proposed method. Results show that the actual BES life expectancy of the proposed model has increased to 4.89 times compared with the traditional ones. The problems caused by DRE are greatly alleviated by fully capturing the uncertainties and correlations with the proposed method.
