In 2019, Huawei adopted the Intelligent Campus Energy Management Solution as part of its digital transformation
of campus management. Based on the Huawei Horizon Digital Platform’s intelligent big data analytics and diagnosis
model and algorithms, Huawei moved its solution from the traditional extensive power supply mode to a demand-
driven power supply mode. Compared with the rigid management model used in chiller plant systems, Huawei’s
solution for campus chiller plant systems formulates dynamic energy consumption control policies with the data
provided by the big data platform such as per-phase operational status, environment changes, and people density. This
solution reduces waste, enables intelligent and automatic control of chiller plant systems and power supplies, and cuts
energy consumption costs by more than 15%. In addition, Huawei’s Intelligent Campus Energy Management Solution
uses big data and IoT technologies to dynamically and intelligently control lighting based on proactive detection of
personnel movement.By deploying its Intelligent Campus Energy Management Solution, Huawei saved 1.4 million kWh of electricity in the
second half of 2019 in Section B of its Bantian campus, a 30% reduction of consumption compared with 2018, and
reduced carbon emissions by about 1,150 tons in total. By the end of 2019, the Intelligent Campus Energy Management
Solution had been rolled out across all Huawei campuses, bringing remarkable benefits, including energy savings of
more than 15% across the whole year.Green Operations
Huawei sticks with its sustainability strategy and is working hard to build greener campuses. We have taken many
managerial and technical measures to develop innovative practices in energy saving and build green, low-carbon
campuses. Using 5G, IoT, big data, and AI technologies, we have studied and implemented innovative energy-
saving solutions on campuses to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions and build a green, sustainable
campus ecosystem.

Huawei has incorporated environmental protection
requirements into its Quality First procurement strategy
and end-to-end procurement process, including
supplier qualification, selection, review, performance
management, and material selection. We aim to ensure
compliance with all applicable environmental laws and
regulations, encourage suppliers to make continuous
improvements through our sourcing strategy, and build a
competitive and green supply chain.
Since 2011, Huawei has supported the Green Choice
Alliance, which was established by the Institute of
Public and Environmental Affairs (IPE). We continue
to use the IPE’s Blue Map environmental data
search during supplier audits and supplier self-
checks. We routinely submit environmental data
inquiries to our 900 key suppliers and if a supplier
violates environmental protection rules, an immediate
corrective action plan is issued. This helps suppliers
manage their own environmental impacts. In 2019,
Huawei ranked third in the global IT industry and first
among Chinese companies in the IPE’s Green Supply
Chain rankings.We encourage our suppliers to develop energy
metering systems, audit their energy usage, identify
opportunities to reduce energy use and carbon
emissions, study industry-leading practices and case
studies, and develop and implement their own energy
conservation and emissions reduction plans. In 2019, a
total of 35 suppliers took part in energy conservation
and emissions reduction programs, together reducing
CO 2 emissions by more than 80,000 tons.As digital and intelligent campuses
become more widespread, Huawei’s
intelligent campus solution offers a
more comprehensive, fine-grained,
and intelligent mode of energy
management. Huawei’s Intelligent
Campus Energy Management
Solution will be applied in more
campuses to help save energy
and reduce power consumption,
contribute to a low-carbon economy,
and transform our campuses into
greener ones.2019 Annual Report (^167)
