Shanghai, China – September 19, 2025:
The Huawei Connect 2025 event has officially kicked off in Shanghai, with Huawei Digital Power hosting its Data Center Infrastructure Summit. The summit brought together more than 500 global business leaders, technical experts, and ecosystem partners from the data center industry to discuss green and low-carbon digital infrastructure in the era of industry intelligence. Huawei Digital Power also showcased its comprehensive range of green and low-carbon all-scenario digital power solutions while emphasizing collaboration within the industry to build high-quality, secure, and reliable data centers to meet the evolving demands of the AI era.
In his keynote address, Bob He, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power, highlighted how AI-driven data centers (AI DCs) are transforming traditional infrastructure into “computing factories”, driven by the explosive growth of AI computing power. He underscored the necessity for a more efficient and reliable power transmission framework, which simplifies conversion links and supports innovative power supply architectures. According to He, thermal management in AI data centers will benefit from a hybrid architecture that can adjust the air-liquid ratio to meet the dynamic demands of AI workloads.
“AI DCs will propel infrastructure evolution, and as we move into the AI era, infrastructure must be AI-ready. This will help turn the unpredictability of traditional data center engineering into productized, prefabricated AI DC solutions,” He explained. Huawei plans to continue its focus on research and development in areas like power supply, thermal management, and infrastructure to build AI-ready data centers that are not only efficient but also agile, sustainable, and reliable.
Further emphasizing the growth of AI infrastructure, Steve Kim, President of Data Center Facility & Critical Power Marketing, Sales and Services at Huawei Digital Power, noted that AI foundation models are driving industry-wide intelligent transformation and fueling the rapid development of global GW-scale clusters. It is anticipated that the scale of new AI data centers will reach 112 GW over the next five years, according to authoritative industry predictions. In response to challenges related to safety, delivery, IT evolution, and energy consumption, Huawei has introduced its AI DC construction guideline RAS, offering a comprehensive framework to navigate these challenges effectively.
During the summit, Huawei unveiled its AIDC Facility Reference Design White Paper, providing in-depth insights into the design and construction of AI-driven data centers. The White Paper addresses critical challenges such as cooling, power supply, distribution, floor height, and load-bearing capacity. It offers a variety of design solutions that optimize data center performance based on different power densities, providing valuable reference points for future AI DC development.
In addition, Huawei Digital Power showcased its innovative green and low-carbon solutions, focusing on efficient power consumption, electrification, and low-carbon power generation. With rapid advancements in computing infrastructure, deep reasoning models, and multi-model fusion technologies, the applications of AI are moving from mere quantitative growth to qualitative transformation. Huawei aims to continue investing in innovation and combining digital and power electronics technologies to maximize computing power per watt.
The company’s ongoing commitment to fostering industry-wide collaboration and building a greener, more sustainable future is evident as it strives to create a solid foundation for the growing demands of intelligent computing in the AI era.
