Abstract: The growth of the number and scale of data centers makes the energy consumption problem of data centers more and more prominent. Many governments have formulated corresponding policies and regulations to promote the energy saving of data centers. The energy consumption of data center is mainly composed of power supply and distribution system energy consumption, refrigeration system energy consumption and it equipment energy consumption. This paper first analyzes the energy consumption composition and energy efficiency index of data center, then analyzes the influencing factors of energy efficiency of data center from three aspects of power supply and distribution system, refrigeration system and it equipment, summarizes the current mainstream energy efficiency optimization strategies of data center, and on this basis, puts forward the data center as a This energy efficiency optimization strategy fully investigates the matching of data center service performance and energy consumption, and can effectively realize the global energy efficiency optimization of data center.

Key words: data center, energy efficiency optimization, strategy
