Huawei Philippines joined the Conference of the
Electricity Power Supply Industry (CEPSI) yesterday. This event
aims to bring forth thought leadership and action to promote sustainability and
social inclusiveness in the region’s electricity industry. Dr. Fang Liangzhou,
the Vice President and CMO of Huawei Digital Power, shared his view about how
to build a low-carbon smart society through digital power.
Carbon neutrality has become a global consensus and
mission. 44 countries have identified carbon-neutral timings, such as Europe
Union in 2050 and China in 2060. I believe it is one of the biggest trends in
the coming 30 to 40 years. It is not only a revolution in power production and
consumption, but also an unprecedented opportunity of upgrading all industries,
and bringing a comprehensive and profound revolution to our economy and
society.
According to International Energy Agency (IEA), global
carbon emissions mainly come from 3 industries: Electricity power, manufacture,
and transportation. Electricity power accounts for 40% of carbon emissions. And
transportation accounts for 21% of carbon emissions.
Dr. Fang Liangzhou, Vice
President and CMO of Huawei Digital Power gave speech during CEPSI 2021
“To achieve carbon neutrality, Power production needs to
be low carbonized and Power consumption needs to be electrified”, Dr. Fang said
in the keynote, “Huawei has deeply integrated digital technologies and power
electronics technologies to create all-scenario low-carbon energy solutions,
covering the whole energy flow from green power generation to efficient power
consumption.”
According to his speech, Huawei PV solution can reduce
LCOE (Levelized Cost Of Energy) by 7% and improves O&M efficiency by 50%. In
commercial & industrial scenario, Huawei PV solution can help users achieve
higher power generation and better power storage. In residential scenario,
Huawei PV solution can be installed in different directions, and can increase
the power generation by up to 30% with intelligent optimization. Huawei also
launched an off-grid integrated energy solution to replace diesel generators
with PV, which can reduce power generation costs by more than 50%, achieving
zero carbon emissions.
New energy sources are intermittent and random. They
generate electricity when there is sun or wind, which is unstable energy and
often depends on the weather. Therefore, solar energy and wind energy must be
combined with energy storage to provide stable energy.
Dr.Fang mentioned the World's Largest Energy Storage
Project, which Huawei signed in Dubai last month with SEPCOIII for the Red Sea
Project. The project will help Saudi Arabia build a global clean energy and
green economy center.
A few examples of Huawei's
all-scenario zero-carbon power generation solution.
The vision of Huawei Digital Power Company is to
digitalize traditional energy and develop green energy, by integrating digital
technologies and power electronics technologies, to drive the energy revolution
for a better, greener future.
“Huawei Digital Power is to use bits to manage watts,
use digital technologies to manage power electronics and equipment, and provide
simplified, green, smart, and secure solutions for clean power generation,
green ICT infrastructure, transportation electrification, and integrated smart
energy. We will keep openness and work closely with our customers and partners
to build a zero-carbon intelligent society.” Dr. Fang said.
With more than 10 years of experience in researching and
developing energy storage systems, Huawei highly valued technology research and
development, and has been investing at least 10 % of revenue in R&D every
year, with total $90 billion spent in R&D over the past decade.
Targeting carbon neutrality and clean energy, Huawei
Digital power has helped customers generate 403.4 billion kWh of green
electricity and save 12.4 billion kWh of electricity, which is equivalent to
reducing carbon emissions by more than 200 million tons and planting 270
million trees. In the Philippines, Huawei has worked together with big
developers and local partners to build utility, Commercial &Industrial and
residential Solar Power plants in the country.
Dr. Fang ended his speech by saying, “We are facing
unprecedented opportunities for low-carbon society, and I firmly believe if we
embrace the globalization, mutual trust, open collaboration, we can seize the
opportunities, and create a green and bright future together!”
The CEPSI 2021 was organized by the Association of
Electricity Supply Industry of East Asia and the Western Pacific (AESIEAP) –
the largest organization of power and industry companies in the region. With
the theme: Energized Countries. Empowered Communities.
The event gathered thought leaders, experts, and
professionals in the power and energy industry, serving as a platform for
exchanging ideas and strengthening ties among industry players. And focused on
Creating the greatest value and impact to communities; and Promoting
sustainability and social inclusiveness in the region’s electricity industry.
