Tuya Smart's Recognition in Sustainable Development
Tuya Smart, the renowned global cloud platform service provider, made headlines recently by being honored at the UNGC initiative "20 CASES FOR 20 YEARS" for its innovative Home Energy Management System (HEMS). This initiative celebrates two decades of commitment to sustainable development by the private sector in China, emphasizing the importance of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles.
A Milestone in Sustainability
This year marks a significant milestone—the 20th anniversary of ESG concepts. In light of this, the UNGC invited submissions from organizations across China to highlight exemplary practices in sustainability. After a thorough evaluation process led by a selection committee of UN experts and academic specialists, Tuya was chosen alongside other prominent firms such as Tencent, Ant Group, and CATL. These companies were recognized for their effective and innovative approaches to sustainable practices.
Eva Na, Tuya Smart's Vice President of Marketing and Strategic Cooperation, expressed her gratitude for the recognition, stating that it underscores Tuya's unwavering dedication to social responsibility, environmental stewardship, and economic growth. "We aim to engage every household in energy-saving practices through our HEMS," she noted, emphasizing the company's goal of uniting individuals in fostering sustainability.
Transforming Energy Management with Technology
Tuya's HEMS represents a strategic initiative to capitalize on household energy consumption, which typically accounts for about 30% of total energy usage globally. With the growing need for smart energy solutions, Tuya has equipped households with comprehensive energy monitoring tools, providing detailed analysis and real-time management capabilities.
Particularly in energy-intensive regions such as Singapore, the benefits of Tuya's HEMS have become evident. Projections suggest that 1.8 million households in Singapore could see an average energy saving of 25%. Some users report impressive reductions of up to 54% in their monthly electricity costs. By partnering with local air conditioning manufacturers, Tuya has facilitated energy-efficient practices through the integration of advanced infrared sensors, contributing significantly to the realization of Singapore's "Smart Nation" vision.
Global Partnerships Driving Sustainable Impact
Tuya's commitment to sustainable practices extends beyond its solutions, as it actively collaborates with various stakeholders, including customers, developers, and governmental bodies. These partnerships aim to provide tailored smart energy solutions to address diverse energy management challenges globally.
In Europe, for instance, collaborations with companies like Xanlite have enabled the development of innovative energy-saving products, promoting sustainable living across households. Similarly, partnerships with groups such as Nahui New Energy Technology and ESR, a leader in real asset management, further exemplify Tuya's strategy to distribute smart energy management solutions worldwide.
Showcasing Solutions at International Forums
Notably, Tuya's HEMS was featured prominently during COP29, a significant international conference on climate change. At this event, Tuya showcased how its solutions can drive a transformative shift in global energy management. The engagement highlighted Tuya's ongoing commitment to carbon reduction efforts and its ambition to bolster sustainable practices across borders.
As Tuya forges ahead, it remains focused on deepening its sustainability initiatives and enhancing operational compliance, ecological protection, and public welfare. By fostering a strong international network of partners, Tuya is well-positioned to pave the way for a smarter, greener future, demonstrating the potential of technology in driving societal change.
