In the era of digital economy, computing power is productivity.
The "2019-2020 Global Computing Power Index Evaluation Report" released by IDC clearly pointed out that on a global scale, for every 1 point increase in the computing power index on average, the digital economy and GDP will grow by 3.3‰ and 1.8‰ respectively.
Let’s let the numbers speak for themselves first—among the top 20 countries in terms of computing power, 17 are also among the top 20 economies in the world, and the value and role of computing power can be seen from this.
Obviously, human demand for computing power is still growing rapidly, and perhaps the word "blowout" can be used to describe it. The computing power infrastructure represented by the data center has become an important force to promote economic upgrading and transformation and satisfy people's better life.
According to Huawei's "Smart World 2030" report, it is estimated that by 2030, general computing power and artificial intelligence computing power will increase by 10 times and 500 times, respectively. This explosive growth will inevitably drive the high-density and large-scale development of data centers, opening up new growth space for data centers.
Correspondingly, the energy demand of the data center may face the challenge of doubling in the next few years. On November 11, Huawei Data Center Energy released its global ecological policy for the first time, providing new ideas and opportunities for partners under the current development environment of the industry.
new challenges, new opportunities
Hou Jinlong, President of Huawei Digital Energy Technology Co., Ltd. , said that "carbon neutrality" is a mission entrusted by the times and a rare opportunity.
Obviously, in the next few decades, intelligence and low carbonization have become the inevitable trend of industrial development. On the "dominant" side, our work and life are constantly empowered by intelligence; on the other side of the "invisible", low-carbonization continues to be implemented in the cleanliness of the power generation side and the electrification of the energy consumption side.
This extensive and profound economic and social change will not only bring new challenges to energy production and consumption, but also bring new opportunities for the comprehensive upgrading of all walks of life.
That's exactly what happened. Specific to Huawei's data center energy business, according to reports, it has achieved 70% growth so far, and a large number of fully supported partners have achieved an unprecedented surge in performance.
Hou Jinlong said that in the face of huge development opportunities for data centers, Huawei will unswervingly increase investment in the energy field of data centers, focus on the three major areas of ecology, R&D, and teams, and support partners in all aspects to jointly promote the vigorous development of the data center industry .
Human society is accelerating into a new era of green development. In the process of implementing green development and assisting the "double carbon" goal, digital technology is a strong guarantee to ensure the safety of the power system and the stable supply of energy.
Yang Yougui, President of Global Marketing and Sales Services of Huawei Digital Energy, said, "We need to integrate digital technology with power electronics technology. According to the dual-carbon demand, we will create a scenario-based and competitive solution for the industry."
Aiming at the development trend of the industry, and combining the opinions and suggestions of our partners, Huawei Digital Energy will focus on two aspects to create data center energy products in the future. One is to create solutions with special competitiveness around government and enterprise, Internet and financial industries; the other is to focus on the power supply field, and to create solutions around semiconductors, rail transit, airports, and energy.
During this process, Huawei will focus on and focus on emerging new scenarios, find technologies for the scenarios, and cooperate with partners to continue to solve problems and create value for customers.
Three major policies, three principles
At this press conference, in response to the current situation of the industrial environment, facing new challenges and new opportunities, and responding to the voices and demands of our partners, Huawei Data Center Energy announced three new partner policies.
First, is "insist on being integrated" . Yang Yougui said that Huawei will only focus on making its own products well and achieving the ultimate. On this basis, it will hand over the work of integrating services to the majority of partners, so that everyone can work together to expand the market.
Secondly, it is "gathering ability-based partners" . Huawei needs to enable partners' capabilities, create products suitable for partners and commercial markets, and create digital combat tools and platforms. Through these efforts, Huawei hopes that by 2027, the proportion of revenue from partners will reach or even exceed 70%.
Finally, it is "building a sales and service system centered on partners" . Yang Yougui promised that Huawei will only develop its professional service online capabilities, and hand over offline capabilities to its partners, and clarify the boundaries of cooperation with partners. Both parties will adhere to win-win and common development.
Easier said than done. So, under the new strategic direction, how will Huawei ensure the real implementation of the partnership policy?
Huawei has put forward three basic principles: interests as the link, rules as the guarantee, and integrity as the foundation . "Today marks the official release of the Partnership Policy 1.0. I believe that after one year, everyone will feel that Huawei has always kept its word and kept its word." Yang Yougui said.
In fact, it is not difficult to feel Huawei's confidence and commitment to partners just from the proportion of business: before, Huawei's direct sales of digital center energy accounted for 65%, and partners accounted for 35%. In the future, Huawei Will try to turn it around.
Through measures such as partner protection, project reporting, and regional protection, Huawei hopes to help partners with different types and capabilities achieve project breakthroughs and progress, and promote more professional partners to become bigger and stronger, win higher status certification, and get more rebates.
At the same time, Huawei will increase investment in marketing expenses, work with partners to strengthen the "soil fertility", enhance the brand of Huawei's data center energy, and jointly make the market better with strict business principles and channel military regulations.
Huawei's data center energy plan is to provide the company with a net income of more than US$5 billion by 2027. According to the above business ratio, this means that Huawei's partners will generate more than US$10 billion in revenue.
"The world's 15 billion US dollars is what our partners and Huawei can do together. I just want to ask: Are you ready?" Yang Yougui's words won thunderous applause from the audience.
new product, good solution
Of course, as a leading technology-oriented product company, Huawei believes that good products are the prerequisite for growth, development, cooperation and win-win. "Products are king", so we are always committed to making products the best.
At this press conference, Fei Zhenfu, President of Huawei's Data Center Energy Domain, said, "The past ten years have witnessed the rapid development of Huawei's data center energy, and it has also been the decade in which we have grown together with our partners."
In just ten years, Huawei's data center energy has grown from scratch, from following to leading, constantly subverting the industry, opening up new tracks, and leading the development of the entire industry. We have seen that the modular computer room, modular UPS, and comprehensive lithium batteries advocated by Huawei have become a new trend in the field of data center construction.
Compared with large-scale data centers, the PUE of small and medium-sized data centers is often high, resulting in astonishing power consumption; secondly, small and medium-sized data centers have complex scenarios, and there are problems such as insufficient load-bearing and insufficient floor height; Problems can cause business interruption; finally, the failure rate is high, and the actual reliability is not ideal.
Fei Zhenfu said that Huawei has always held an open attitude and listened carefully to voices from partners and the market. In response to the general needs of small and medium-sized data centers, Huawei officially released the smart micro-module 6.0 and small lithium battery UPS solutions.
Taking the former as an example, based on the three design concepts of "low carbon, minimalism, and safety" , Huawei has carried out a lot of optimizations to make the product both "exquisite" and "intelligent". According to the tests conducted by China Academy of Information and Communications Technology and Green Grid, a small data center with 100kW and 60% load rate can save nearly 190,000 yuan in electricity bills every year through smart micro-module 6.0.
The latter is a minimalist, intelligent, safe, reliable, green and energy-saving power supply solution created by Huawei for the power supply requirements of low-power scenarios. Through core technology innovation and integration, the high-density UPS-2000H is equipped with SmartLi Mini.
Previously, most small UPSs had common problems such as difficult management, uneven quality, and low efficiency. Starting from the subtleties, Huawei guarantees the high quality and high quality of its products from the inside out, establishing a unique "Huawei Quality" in the industry.
Huawei's small lithium battery UPS can guarantee the high availability of five nines, has strong grid adaptability, a wide voltage range, and a very high level of lightning protection.
The success of Huawei's data center energy is inseparable from the support of partners and excellent product solutions. Facing the future, Huawei will also work with its partners to illuminate the future of the evolution of thousands of industries with leading products and solutions.
