Michel FRAISSE, Europe Vice President & CTO of Digital Power Solution, Huawei: Enabling a low-carbon world with ICT innovation
In recent years, environmental problems, such as forest fires, droughts and floods, Antarctic warming, sea level rise, can all be traced down to climate change. The EU has decided to legislate to become carbon neutral by 2050, and China plans to be carbon neutral by 2060. In October, Japan and South Korea also announced their carbon-neutral goal by 2050. In addition to government agencies, enterprises, industry organizations and NGOs are also working on green initiatives.
Environmental protection has always been a key strategy for Huawei's sustainable development. Michel FRAISSE pointed out that ICT infrastructure needs to reduce its own carbon dioxide emissions and help all industries do the same. ICT innovation will play an important role in reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Huawei Digital Power achieves green power generation and efficient power utilization through technical innovation. Currently, Huawei Digital Power has generated a total of 296.5 billion kilowatt hours of green power, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 180 million tons, which is equivalent to planting 250 million trees.
