Global Digital Power Forum 2022This is nothing new at Barcelona. Big companies have always tried hard to improve their brand image by promoting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), for example. This year, the so-called “green” technologies are in the mouths of leaders who are above all marketing… And trying to give themselves an air of respectability!
Thus, nearly 200 customers and industry organizations from around the world participated in the Global Digital Power Forum 2022, whose theme was “Lighting Up a Low-Carbon Smart Future”, held during the annual Mobile World Congress ( MWC) from Barcelona, according to a Press release written by Huawei.
Huawei invested with a mission
“Industry leaders shared their ideas on how to innovate low-carbon green networks and data centers and promote clean energy development,” according to a text from Huawei that aims to guide operators. on the path to low-carbon development.
“Huawei actively supports and participates in climate change actions to help customers become carbon neutral. We are continuously innovating in clean power generation, energy digitization, electric transportation, green ICT energy infrastructure and integrated smart energy,” according to Fang Liangzhou, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power.

Boileau said it well: in essence, what is conceived well is stated clearly and the words come from it with ease… Failing that, we are thrown at us with sometimes hazy concepts and a few figures that are difficult to verify……
“The energy efficiency of equipment rooms can be improved by 55% to 75% following capacity expansion and reconstruction. In addition, innovative technologies, such as precise cooling and smart voltage boosting, eliminate the need to add equipment rooms, replace cables, and add air conditioners,” Huawei says.
Obviously, if these various innovations are to be welcomed, it is however unlikely that they will compensate for our growing hunger for entertainment, especially in video. And what we might perhaps gain on one side, we risk losing on the other. The solution seems obvious: a certain digital sobriety. However, this concept does not sell…
