AI TEMS cooling optimization in telecommunications equipment rooms
KT reported 24% better cooling efficiency in an AI TEMS pilot across 4 equipment rooms
Problem
KT used the same temperature standard across telecommunications equipment rooms and ran cooling systems at maximum capacity to maintain service stability.
Approach
KT developed AI TEMS to manage equipment-room temperatures automatically. AI analyzed equipment characteristics and temperatures by location to set suitable room temperatures and adjust cooling operation. KT reported results from a pilot in 4 rooms in April 2024.
Results
Takeaway
The reported improvement concerned cooling efficiency in the pilot rooms. It did not establish an equivalent reduction in total network electricity consumption.
