A Sustainable Vision For A Productive Future

whitePaper | January 20, 2020

Few industries impact global economic livelihood, societal functioning, and quality of life as significantly as the energy industry. Few industries face as many challenges. A number of daunting factors are again leading many inside and outside the energy industry to embrace renewable energy as a solution—or, perhaps, more accurately—a critical piece of the solution. Renewable energy sources are making inroads in our national energy mix, and that progress is likely to continue. It’s not a matter of whether the renewable energy market will grow, it’s how fast and by how much.

How Microgrids Contribute to the Energy Transition

whitePaper | January 20, 2023

Executive summary In the early 20th century, the centralization of electricity production made huge pro- gress, enabling significant economies of scale and improved power plant efficiency. Today, decentralization could help tackle the energy challenges of the 21st century by creating an optimized way to access reliable, green, and resilient energy. Microgrids are the emerging energy eco- system that provides practical answers through a local, interconnected energy system within clearly defined electrical boundaries, which incorporate loads, de- centralized energy resources, battery stor- age, and control capabilities

Why we need the European wind industry and how to safeguard it

whitePaper | December 27, 2022

We’re in the midst of an unprecedented energy crisis, with soaring energy prices and faltering supply chains around the world. In Europe, we have failed to realize and mitigate our strong energy dependencies – and now, people and industries are suffering the consequences. We urgently need more wind capacity to protect our economies and our climate alike.

Greening the Future Data Center Infrastructure via the GE Aeroderivative Technology and Microgrid Controls

whitePaper | June 15, 2022

Some data centers consume more energy than a large town or small city. But those towns and cities have time to relax and shut down. While data centers are critical infrastructure, they also run our worlds critical infrastructure – so keeping them online ca be a matter of life and death. Combine this with the continued need for more sustainable operations, renewable energy goals and objectives, and a dramatic increase for data storage services – and you have an interesting challenge. The Data Centers Industry went through a massive growth pattern in the past decade due to cloud computing transformation, hyperscale, 5G networks and other technological and socioeconomic changes. This technological evolution introduced challenges to the Data Centers owners in terms of sustainability, cost effectiveness and reliable operation. Per Seagate.com , the expected growth for data centers will go from 33 ZB in 2018 to 175 Zetabytes (1 Zetabyte = Billion Terabytes) by 2025

Electricity Resource Compensation Under a NetZero Future

whitePaper | September 15, 2022

Over the past decade, state governments, local municipalities, and large corporations have increased momentum for the adoption of net zero carbon policies, and with the signing of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022 that will provide hundreds of billions of dollars of investment in clean energy, that net zero carbon future now looks more achievable. E3 has been at the forefront of analyzing possible decarbonization pathways across North America. While there are multiple potential pathways on the road to net zero, it will ultimately result in a fundamental shift over time from an era of dominated by fossil fuel generation resources to one dominated by renewables, energy storage, and demand-side resources. This will result in a major transformation in how electricity markets function.

Huawei European Green Paper

whitePaper | June 7, 2022

Since establishing its first European R&D center in Sweden 20 years ago, Huawei has been collaborating to innovate and develop alongside European partners. Currently, Huawei has more than 15,000 employees in Europe, about 70% of whom are locally recruited, and indirectly supports more than 224,000 jobs, with 2 regional offices and 27 R&D centers. Huawei has established 230 technical cooperation projects and has partnered with over 150 universities across Europe. Today, green development has become an important trend. Green development, on par with the digital economy, has emerged as a major area of focus and global consensus in the roadmaps released by economies, including those in Europe. Huawei is committed to using technology to contribute to a better planet. We support Europe in achieving carbon neutrality through reducing carbon emissions, contributing to a circular economy,promoting renewable energy, and conserving nature with technology
