BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

The Huawei Green ICT Summit was held in Barcelona today. Peng Song, President

of ICT Strategy & Marketing of Huawei, delivered a keynote speech entitled

"Green & Development, Choosing Not to Choose". Peng pointed out that An AI Big

Bang is underway. AI brings new benefits and opportunities to operators.

However, it also requires better ICT infrastructure, due to higher bandwidth

and increased computing power leading to a rapid increase in network energy

consumption. "The ICT industry seems to be faced with the tough choice to

either go green or develop. However, we believe the industry can choose not to

choose, and instead go green and develop simultaneously " Peng said.

Peng pointed out that simultaneous green ICT and ICT development is possible if

the right balance is struck between energy efficiency, renewable energy

utilization, and user experience. At MWC Barcelona 2023, Huawei will launch

solutions that embody this approach to pave the way for the green development

of ICT infrastructure networks.

In terms of energy efficiency, Huawei advocates expanding the focus from just

improving network energy efficiency to also reducing absolute energy

consumption. In light-load scenarios, multi-dimensional shutdown technology can

be employed to enable intelligent shutdown across different dimensions, such as

frequency, time, channel, and power. Meanwhile, in ultra-light-load scenarios,

equipment can be put into a deep dormancy mode. For example, new materials and

processes can be used to solve condensation and low temperature issues when AAU

hardware shuts down. This enables the power module to independently remain in

standby, meaning the power consumption of the AAU during extremely light load

can be reduced from 300 W to less than 10 W.

In terms of renewable energy, the company calls for a focus expansion, from the

scale of green power deployment to the efficient use of renewable energy. An

upgrade from network-specific policies to site-specific policies can be

undertaken in order to improve the accuracy of renewable energy deployment.

Additionally, the time required for intelligent scheduling can be reduced from

days to minutes, thus maximizing the economic and environmental benefits of

renewable energy. Multi-dimensional site information such as weather,

electricity price, battery status, and service volume can be obtained, and

intelligent scheduling algorithms can maximize power generation efficiency and

load-based power availability, while minimizing overall power cost.

In terms of user experience, Huawei proposes that the focus should no longer

solely be on network energy saving and KPI assurance, but extend to user

experience assurance. Optimal energy saving policies can be adopted according

to different network scenarios. In low-traffic scenarios, basic network KPIs

are guaranteed to maximize energy saving, while user experience is guaranteed

in high-traffic scenarios. Experience-driven approaches are being upgraded to

data-driven approaches, allowing energy-saving policies to be generated in

minutes and optimization policies to be delivered in milliseconds.

Peng emphasized that Huawei iteratively updates its green solutions in

accordance with its belief in the potential of the three aforementioned areas,

and has launched the Huawei Green 1-2-3 solution. Within this solution, "1"

refers to one index for green network construction; "2" refers to the focus on

two scenarios: high energy efficiency and ultra-low energy consumption; and "3"

refers to a systematic three-layer solution that covers sites, networks, and

operations. Peng closed his speech by highlighting Huawei's willingness to work

with operators worldwide to strike a balance between going green and

development, in order to accelerate green ICT development.

MWC Barcelona 2023 will run from February 27 to March 2 in Barcelona, Spain.

Huawei will showcase its products and solutions at stand 1H50 in Fira Gran Via

Hall 1. Together with global operators, industry professionals, and opinion

leaders, we will dive into topics such as 5G business success, 5.5G

opportunities, green development, digital transformation, and our vision of

using the GUIDE business blueprint to lay the foundation for 5.5G and build on

the success of 5G for even greater prosperity. For more information, please
