Huawei proposes to simplify site construction, replace equipment rooms with cabinets and cabinets with poles. This solution reduces the civil engineering cost, carbon emission during construction and reconstruction, as well as the power consumption of air conditioners for heat dissipation.
To tackle the low energy consumption efficiency of sites during power conversion, Huawei uses efficient modules and a single system to replace traditional inefficient modules and multiple power systems, boosts the voltage for power supply to reduce transmission loss, and reduces carbon emissions during power conversion.
To achieve fast rollout and E2E life cycle low carbon, the Chengdu AI computing data center uses Huawei’s prefabricated modular data center solution to integrate smart and green facilities like PowerPod, SmartLi, and iCooling.etc.
