BARCELONA, Spain, March 3, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Today's GLOMO Awards Ceremony recognized the Smart Port Solution — implemented

by Tianjin Port, Huawei, and China Mobile — as the Best Mobile Innovation for

Connected Economy. The award seeks out mobile-based innovation that is creating

more digital workplaces. The cutting-edge solution at Tianjin Port delivers —

the new intelligent system connects port operations, automating transportation

and increasing efficiency, while saving costs and energy.

Tianjin Port is one of the world's seven largest ports, with an annual

container throughput of 20 million TEU and 20,000 employees. The cost of manual

operations at this scale is exuberant, both in terms of money and efficiency.

The Smart Port Solution uses the latest tech — intelligent twins, autonomous

driving, 5G, cloud computing, and IoT — to create a better connected, smarter,

and more autonomous system.

The results speak for themselves. The port needs 60% fewer staff than before.

Drivers (who are in high demand) now operate trucks remotely and no longer have

to face dangerous, unhealthy working conditions. The solution also helps save

money, reducing overall costs by about 30%. In addition, the port is becoming

greener. It is producing its own renewable energy, supplementing other

traditional power sources. At the same time, the port is consuming 17% less

energy overall.

Mr. Yang Rong, General Manager of Tianjin Port Second Container Terminal Co.,

said: "Tianjin Port and Huawei used a wealth of new ICTs for our Intelligent

Horizontal Transportation Management System. We created a new-generation

"intelligent port brain". The system collaborates with key resources to

automatically generate optimal loading and unloading plans. It also manages

each piece of equipment, optimizing the entire dispatch process. Our horizontal

shoreline terminal has the largest driverless fleet, comprised of

76 vehicles."

"Tianjin Port is truly a global one — trading with over 800 ports and 200

countries worldwide. We look forward to supporting the next phase of its

digitalization, which will help the port become even greener, smarter, and more

secure." said Bruce Xun, CEO of Huawei Global Customs & Port Business.

Solution highlights

-Integrated: The underlying architecture intelligently connects the various

port systems, eliminating data and information silos. All applications work

together, powered by the Smart Hub, which centrally manages operations.

-Safe: All data collection and applications comply with Tianjin Port security

policies and the GDPR. Smart video scene with 5G assures the safety of services

and operations. At the same time, the network uses the latest security

technologies to assure user privacy and network reliability. Finally,

integrated and smart O&M quickly identifies and addresses risks and faults.

-Efficient: Everything is faster and smoother. From start to finish, operations

are made more efficient with smart applications and technologies. Processes

take minutes instead of hours, while personnel focus on management rather than

manual tasks. In the end, goods clear the port faster, signaling larger

economic benefits.

-Green: The first zero-carbon port initiative, Tianjin Port is shifting toward

renewable energy consumption. It is substituting fossil fuels and electricity

with wind and solar energy. Plus, Huawei's smart tech is helping optimize and

reduce overall energy consumption.
