The statement said critically, they would have to do so without compromising on performance or drastically increasing their physical footprints.<\/p>\n<p>It said the PowerPOD 3.0 enables data centres to do all these things and it reduced the footprint of data centres by 40 per cent, cuts their energy consumption by 70 per cent, shortens the delivery period from two months to two weeks, and lowers the service level agreement (SLA) fault rate by 38 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt Huawei, we are ready and willing to do to contribute to green development in Africa,\u201d Mr Jason Xia Hesheng, President of Huawei Digital Power Southern Africa said.<\/p>\n<p>He said they have a proud tradition of ensuring that all their technologies were sustainable while pushing the boundaries of innovation and it would allow customers to pursue some of the most transformative technologies such as 5G and AI while protecting the planet.<\/p>\n<p>He said Africa in particular stands to benefit from systems such as the PowerPOD 3.0 Energy presents a major challenge in Africa. The President said data centres consume anywhere between 2 per cent -3 per cent of the world\u2019s power annually.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis adds an additional strain on African countries\u2019 grids. Additionally, the average annual Power Usage Effectiveness of data centres in Africa is 1.8 meaning that they are not as efficient as they could be something like the PowerPOD 3.0 can go a long way to bringing that score closer to the ideal of 1.0,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He said the system\u2019s ability to bring down Operation and Maintenance (O&amp;M) costs could also prove significant, given that the initial construction of the data centre accounts for just a third of its costs, with the other two-thirds coming from O&amp;M.<\/p>\n<p>The President said with Africa set to have more than 600-million internet users and 360 million intelligent end-users by 2025, it would be critical that it not just use systems such as PowerPOD 3.0 to make its existing data centres more efficient, but also as a way of embracing the next generation of data centres, characterized by Sustainability, Simplification, Autonomous Driving and Reliability.<\/p>\n<p>He said as Africa looked to balance population growth, urbanization, and the desire to move forward on smart city initiatives with commitments to decarbonize, these kinds of next-generation data centres would be crucial.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the \u2018heart\u2019 of the data centre, the power supply system should integrate and innovate all devices in the power supply chain,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
