Huawei Reveals Innovative Energy Architecture at MWC 2025
At the 2025 Mobile World Congress (MWC) held in Barcelona, Huawei's He Bo, the head of the Data Center Facility and Critical Power Product Line, unveiled an advanced architecture designed for local energy production, known as
Single SitePower. Additionally, the company introduced new guidelines for constructing AI-based data centers, branded as
RASTM. These announcements are poised to support energy operators in becoming
energy prosumers, transforming the landscape of critical power supply and data management in the era of artificial intelligence.
The Rise of Smart Data Center Architectures
He Bo emphasized that the growing demand for intelligent digital energy solutions is a direct result of the rising prominence of smart data center networks. Huawei Digital Power is dedicated to continual innovations that empower operators to thrive as energy producers in addition to consumers.
Single SitePower is a next-generation intelligent architecture that integrates local energy production, wireless networks, and power grids. This synergy enables bidirectional interactions between energy sources, networks, and storage areas, enhancing energy efficiency and availability while significantly reducing carbon intensity.
Key Features of Single SitePower
1.
Resilient Structures: This architecture adeptly integrates wireless networks with local energy generation. It ensures a resilient synergy between energy sources, storage, and load, maintaining structural integrity throughout the process.
2.
Sustainable Innovations: Utilizing cutting-edge technologies, such as high-voltage serial connections, optimizers, intelligent algorithms, and rapid circuit breakers, facilitates the construction of environmentally friendly sites. This accelerates the monetization of green energy.
3.
Reliable Communication: Huawei prioritizes high-quality lithium batteries for secure and reliable communication within power operations.
Introducing RASTM for AI Data Centers
As data centers evolve from generic computing solutions to AI-driven architectures, they face four primary challenges: reliability, uncertainty, rapid deployment, and high energy requirements. To address these challenges, Huawei has released the
RASTM guidelines for AI-based data center construction, emphasizing:
- - Reliability: With the growing value of AI infrastructures, maintaining reliability is crucial. Data centers should employ advanced architectures and intelligent management to ensure durability through their lifecycle.
- - Agility: The design of AI data centers must be modular and adaptable to address varying requirements, thereby enabling swift deployment.
- - Sustainability: A major focus will be on energy efficiency, transitioning from individual equipment efficiency to holistic system efficiencies, thereby promoting widespread adoption of ultra-economical operational controls.
