Abstract: Design standard is an important safeguard for engineering construction standardization and an important means of modern engineering construction. Having summarized current design standards of data center energy supply in China, highlights are drawn on two design standards, Engineering Design Guidelines for Natural Gas Distributed Energy Projects and GB5 0174—2017 Data Center Design Specifications.In the explanation on the latter one, the contents related to energy supply and cooling are analyzed. The similarities and differences of power-supply related contents in GB 50052—2009 Code for Design of Power Supply and Distribution System and GB 50174—2017 Code for Design of Data Center are compared. The results show that the new standard affirms the idea of powering data centers by distributed energy and taking gas-fired distributed energy as the main power source for data centers.

Key words: data center, gas-fired distributed energy, design standard, energy supply, cooling, power supply
