HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES
My Passion , from the environment to energy efficiency Another area where Sainani has spent a lot of time working on is Huawei ’ s energy efficiency and sustainability solutions .
“ This is an area I am very passionate about ”, said Sainani . “ A lot of my work on innovation is with focus on future proof solutions that are available , energy efficient and sustainable .
WORK IS BEING DONE IN FOUR AREAS :
Power Conversion & Energy Storage technology “ Our UPS technology offers the industry first hot-swappable 100KW UPS module in 3U form factor . Allowing a 1.2 MW UPS footprint to be that of 2 IT cabinets . All of this at an operating efficiency in excess of 96.5 %.
“ Our Smart Li Battery is a LiFP battery offering , is completely modular and offers twice the life-cycle , 70 % reduction
in weight and footprint as compared to traditional batteries .”
Heat extraction Management “ Efficient and effective heat extraction is key at component and system level . For example Smart engineering allows us to extract heat from our UPS modules very efficiently thereby allowing us to have a compact 3 U form factor .
“ Use of special materials for Evaporator , EC fan motors , Variable Speed Compressors , Thin wet Film humidifiers , Indirect evaporative cooling are examples of making heat extraction from components or from data centers efficient and effective .”
Leverage AI & ML for Availability and System level Efficiency “ Embedded IoT provides us with a lot of real-time data , which can be used to predict health of systems and in case of cooling can assist to identify through regression
