To face with the surge of cloud computing services, energy problem and carbon mission constraint, more and more geo-distributed hybrid powered data centers are build over the world. Geo-distributed hybrid powered data centers are located in different locations equipped with different types of green energy source. In this work, we propose a periodic requests dispatcher, including a periodic model and a spatial balance algorithm, to minimize the brown energy use. The periodic model divides the long-term period into several time slots, and the spatial balance algorithm achieves energy optimization by balancing user requests in each time slot. Besides, a research case is simulated by Cloudsim platform. We conduct several comparative analysis in aspect of energy utilization, electricity cost and carbon emission. The experiment results show that the dispatcher can effectively reduce the electricity cost, and reasonably achieve the request distribution balance in geo-distributed hybrid powered data centers.
