[Cannes, France, June 11, 2025] Huawei Digital Power highlighted its latest innovations in sustainable energy and digital infrastructure at DataCloud Global Congress 2025 (June 4–5), one of the world's leading data center industry events.
Under the theme "Power the Digital Era Forward," Huawei unveiled its latest advancements in data center facility power systems and energy storage technologies, drawing widespread attention from over 4,000 global attendees, including 1,800+ exhibition visitors and 400+ keynote panel participants.
Thought Leadership on Energy Transition
Huawei Digital Power participated in two pivotal panels hosted by DataCloud:
-
On June 5, Sanjay Kumar Sainani, Global SVP & CTO of Data Center Business, Huawei Digital Power, joined the keynote panel "Power, Planning and Regulation", offering critical insights into how data centers can overcome energy transition challenges, meet rising AI demand, and align with regulatory frameworks to reach net-zero targets. He emphasized that "behind-the-meter" solutions, such as distributed renewables, can empower data centers to bypass traditional grid limitations and directly manage their carbon footprint.
-
Richard Pimper, CTO of Data Center Business, Huawei Digital Power Europe, contributed to the workshop "Energy, Utilities, and Data Center Partnerships." He explored cross-sector collaborations to unlock grid capacity and influence data center site strategies. Citing examples from Europe, Pimper noted that building solar farms and storage systems adjacent to edge or hot data centers is already helping operators achieve net-zero, enhance grid stability, and optimize energy use through peak shaving.
Innovative Solutions on Display
Huawei’s exhibition booth highlighted a suite of next-generation products designed to tackle the industry's pressing challenges in power supply, cooling, and energy storage:
PowerPOD Series
Huawei introduced the PowerPOD, a modular and integrated power supply solution that addresses key industry pain points: safety, land use, delivery timelines, and operational efficiency.
-
FusionPower6000 (indoor): Follows a "one power supply for one row" approach with full-link integration.
-
FusionPower9000 (outdoor): Combines cooling, electricity, and control in one containerized unit to simplify deployment and enhance efficiency.
Smart Cooling Technologies
-
TMU (Thermal Management Unit): An intelligent liquid cooling solution that acts as the "system brain," ensuring uninterrupted operation and enhanced reliability through redundant AC/DC architecture, harmonic suppression, and modular maintenance features.
-
FWC (Fan Wall Cooling): A high-temperature chilled water system featuring horizontal air supply, modular drive design, and dual AC/DC power architecture, reducing energy use and adapting flexibly to different layouts without raised floors.
Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)
Huawei's Utility-Scale BESS integrates liquid cooling and intelligent controls in an all-in-one format. With grid-forming (GFM) capability, it supports high renewable energy penetration, enabling a reliable, low-carbon energy future for data centers.
