Green World

According to Huawei’s Global Industry Vision (GIV) 2025, carbon emissions per ICT connection are expected to be

reduced by an average of 80% by 2025. ICT-enabled power savings and carbon emission reductions will far exceed

the industry’s own. ICT is becoming an important enabling technology for a greener world. It will enable an 11-

fold increase in power savings and emissions reduction worldwide. For many years, Huawei has been committed to

promoting energy conservation and emissions reduction in different industries using innovative energy solutions,

and actively contributing to a low-carbon society featuring resource conservation and environmental friendliness.

Huawei’s Smart PV Solution Brings Clean Power to Every Household

Global decarbonization is inevitable. Huawei is

committed to building a green and intelligent world.

As such, we expect our smart PV solution to become

a main power source and want to make it accessible

to all. Take the 300 MW PV plant located at Cauchari,

Jujuy Province, Argentina as an example. This PV plant

was commissioned on October 2019. It has an expected

lifespan of 25 years and will generate about 660 million

kWh of electricity annually, enough to provide clean

electricity for 160,000 households. Before the PV plant

was built, Jujuy Province had to buy their electricity from

other provinces, but now the province is self-reliant

when it comes to electricity, greatly alleviating the local

electrical load and reducing electricity prices. The PV

plant, fully powered by Huawei’s smart string inverter,

occupies an area equal to half the size of Buenos Aires

and is the highest-situated PV plant in Latin America at

4,200 meters above sea level.

Huawei Brings Customers and Suppliers Together for Supply Chain Sustainability Programs

In 2019, Huawei worked with Deutsche Telekom and a supplier to carry out

a Sustainable Development Program (SDP) for their supply chain. We worked

together to analyze and identify risks and opportunities in their respective

business domains, and determined energy saving and emissions reduction

opportunities while complying with applicable laws and regulations to reduce

operating costs and improve competitiveness. We helped the supplier save about

140,000 kWh of electricity annually and reduce their carbon emissions by 115

tons by retooling their injection molding equipment, replacing fluorescent lights

with LED lamps, and setting up a solar power generator. We also worked with

the customer and supplier to recycle excess materials and packaging materials,

reducing waste by 84 tons. On January 13, 2020, Deutsche Telekom presented

the supplier a silver medal for its SDP.
