Technology firm Huawei has declared its commitment to minimising its environmental impact during production and operations, as well as throughout the life cycles of its products and services.

In a release, the company noted that carbon neutrality and the reduction of toxic emissions in the world is unifying different actors of society with projections to no longer generate CO2 on the planet.

Huawei said that is why, through ‘Huawei Digital Power’, it would present technological actions to build an intelligent society with low carbon emissions.

In that matter, Huawei said it was working hard to contribute to the environment by integrating digital and power electronics technologies to develop clean energy and enable the digitisation of energy, with the goal of moving from a low-carbon to a carbon-neutral society.

“Huawei Digital Power is committed to driving the energy revolution for a better and greener future with integrated digital and electronic technologies. Even, we focus on clean power generation, energy digitalisation, transportation electrification, green ICT infrastructure and integrated smart energy, as well as collaborating with industry partners to accelerate carbon neutrality,” said Felix Chen, general manager of Huawei Digital Power in Central America and the Caribbean.

Environment protection

Environmental protection is one of Huawei’s four sustainability strategies:

● Carbon emission reduction: technical and management measures are used to reduce the carbon footprint of Huawei products. Innovative ICT solutions can also help industries to reduce their carbon emissions.

● Promoting renewable energy: By integrating digital and power electronic technologies, Huawei drives a shift to a low-carbon energy mix while making the most of renewable energy, ultimately providing green energy for a smart
world.

● Contributing to circular energy: more environmentally friendly materials are used, which help reduce the use of raw materials. The company’s products are more durable and easier to disassemble. Making the world a better place
by using fewer resources.

● Nature conservation with technology: innovative technologies are explored, which amplify critical conservation efforts, such as monitoring, protecting and preserving ecosystems and enhancing biodiversity.

Huawei Digital Power’s green and low-carbon actions

By integrating digital and power electronics technologies, Huawei Digital Power uses bits to manage watts, accelerating carbon neutrality, such as:

Clean energy generation: creates new energy systems that rely primarily on renewable energy and extracts more electricity from each ray of sunlight.

Green ICT energy infrastructure: Helps build green, low-carbon and smart data centres and communications networks, enabling each watt to support more computing power and connections. Ultimately, ICT infrastructure will become a driver for the green digital economy.

Electric transportation: digital technologies are used to redefine the driving and safety experiences of consumers in electric vehicles (EVs). For example, EVs can cover 200 kilometers on a 10-minute charge. This helps eliminate range anxiety, improves the charging experience, increases range per kilowatt-hour of electricity, and accelerates the widespread adoption of EVs.

Integrated Smart Energy: working with partners to integrate energy sources, grids, loads and storage to build low-carbon buildings and campuses, reducing energy costs and increasing energy efficiency.

The annual energy yield is 19 million kWh, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 9,000 tons, so Huawei through Huawei’s Digital Power is committed to accelerating the pace of energy conservation and emission reduction. In terms of building low-carbon campuses, they have already implemented photovoltaic power projects at their research centres in Hangzhou, Nanjing and Suzhou, as well as at the South Factory in Dongguan to deliver clean energy.
