## I. Huawei's three core innovations in cloud environmental protection technology
### 1. Fully Liquid-Cooled Data Center: Key Technology for Reducing Energy Consumption 30%
Huawei Cloud's** fully liquid-cooled green data centers** deployed in Gui'an and Dongguan have revolutionized the high energy consumption of traditional server rooms through the following innovations:
- **Immersion Liquid Cooling Technology**: The server is completely immersed in the insulating cooling liquid, which improves the cooling efficiency by 50% compared with air cooling.
- **Indirect Evaporative Cooling System (IECS)**: Utilizes natural cooling sources for up to 8 months with a PUE value as low as 1.15
- **AI Temperature Control Adjustment**: Dynamically adjusts the power consumption of the cooling system, with an annual power saving equivalent to that of 80,000 households.
> Practical Case: After a multinational e-commerce platform moved to Huawei Cloud Liquid-Cooled Data Center, the energy consumption of IT equipments was reduced by 27%, and the annual carbon reduction reached 12,000 tons.
### 2. Carbon Insight: A Visualization Platform for Enterprise Carbon Footprint Management
Huawei Cloud's exclusively developed **Carbon Management SaaS Tool** solves the pain points of carbon inventory for enterprises:
- Real-time monitoring of carbon emissions from cloud resources (including energy-intensive services such as GPUs)
- Automatic generation of ISO 14064 compliant carbon emission reports
- Provide "Green Power on Cloud" procurement options to help enterprises realize 100% renewable energy use
### 3. Green Software Development Framework: Reducing Energy Consumption at the Code Level
Huawei Cloud proposes **Green Software Development Kit** through:
- Algorithm efficiency optimization (e.g., compressing AI model training cycles)
- Mechanism for the active release of idle assets
- Energy Labeling System for Microservice Architecture
Reduces application runtime power consumption by an average of 22%

## Second, how can enterprises practically apply Huawei's cloud environmental protection technology?
### Case 1: Intelligent Energy Management in the Manufacturing Industry
An automotive parts factory in Southeast Asia has implemented Huawei Cloud** energy IoT platform**:
- AI predicts peak power consumption on production lines and automatically schedules off-peak periods for energy-consuming processes.
- Combining the solar energy data from the roof of the factory to realize 30% self-supply of electricity.
- Annual energy cost savings of US$1.8 million
### Case 2: Green Data Governance in the Financial Sector
A bank in Hong Kong adopts Huawei Cloud** Distributed Storage + Intelligent Filing Solution**:
- Automatically Migrate Cold Data to Low Carbon Storage Nodes
- Compliance file compression ratio increased to 1:15
- Reduction in storage space requirements by 40% while complying with HKMA's Green Finance Guidelines
### Case 3: Low-carbon logistics optimization in the retail sector
A supermarket chain in Taiwan utilizes the Huawei Cloud** Logistics Path Planning Engine**:
- Real-time calculation of the carbon emission factor of transportation vehicles
- Dynamically adjusting delivery routes to reduce empty vehicle rates
- Reduce diesel consumption by 850,000 liters for the year

## III. Future Development Direction of Huawei Cloud Environmental Protection Technology
According to the 2023 Huawei Cloud Sustainability White Paper, the next key deployments include:
1. **Green electricity trading market**: enterprises can procure renewable energy certificates such as wind power and photovoltaic energy directly on the cloud platform
2. **Carbon Credit Smart Contract**: automating the carbon trading process based on blockchain technology
3. **Hardware Recycling Program**: Increase the target recycling rate of decommissioned server parts to 951 TP3T
