- Exact expert configuration to use (list of active expert numbers)
Provide everything in JSON."Practical prompts for reducing energy consumption in data centers and green facilities
Prompt 1: Server cooling optimization
Cooling accounts for up to 40% of a data center’s energy consumption. By providing the model with a dataset of temperature and airflow, detailed recommendations can be generated.
Analyze the following dataset of rack temperatures, fan speeds, and power consumption. Identify:
- Which racks contribute most to energy consumption due to cooling
- The correlation between ambient temperature and fan consumption
- Suggestions for adjusting fan speeds to reduce energy consumption while maintaining temperaturePrompt 2: Production planning from renewable sources
Integrating weather forecasts with renewable energy production enables optimal scheduling of battery charge and discharge.
Given the hourly predicted solar (kW) and wind (kW) energy production for the next 24 hours and the battery capacity (10 MWh, efficiency 95%), calculate:
- The optimal battery charging schedule
- The amount of energy to inject or withdraw from the grid each hour
- The estimated net CO2 savings (t) compared to a fixed consumption profile
Input:
Hour,Solar_kW,Wind_kW
0,0,45
1,10,40
2,55,0
...
Return a JSON with fields: hour, battery_charge_kWh, grid_action, co2_saved_t."Prompt 3: Predictive maintenance for photovoltaic plants
Voice and text recognition models can examine operator logs and visual inspection reports to predict failures.
Summarize the following maintenance log and report:
- Any anomalies that could cause a loss of efficiency greater than 5%
- Components that require immediate inspection
- Recommended maintenance intervals based on historical data
Log:
"[2026-10-27] Solar panel #12, voltage dropping from 30%, possible dirt or shading."
"[2026-10-27] Inverter #4, temperature 78°C, start of a shutdown cycle."
"[2026-10-25] Panel #7 grounding cable damaged, replaced."
Return a bulleted list with fields: issue, severity, recommended_action."Implementing an end-to-end workflow
- Data acquisition:Collect log files, IoT feeds, and weather data using APIs or local acquisition scripts.
- Prompt preparation:Write prompt templates in a versioned repository (e.g., Git) to ensure consistency.
- Model inference:Run Nemotron for text extraction, Dessa for real-time controls, and Mega MoE for large-scale optimization, leveraging APIs or local models.
- Post-processing:Convert JSON responses into monitoring dashboards using tools like Grafana or Power BI.
- Iteration:Record prompt performance and energy results in a log; refine templates based on real data.
