Press Release

Nokia and KDDI trial Japan’s first liquid cooling innovation to promote sustainability

  • Nokia’s unique Liquid Cooling baseband solution cuts cooling energy consumption by more than 70 percent compared to traditional air conditioning systems
  • KDDI will also trial the Nokia AVA solution which applies artificial intelligence to minimize energy consumption across the network
  • Liquid-cooled AirScale Baseband and AVA for energy efficiency solutions are another milestone in Nokia’s commitment to sustainability and combatting climate change

18 June 2021

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced that it is conducting a trial using its unique Liquid Cooling AirScale Baseband solution with Japanese mobile operator, KDDI. The trial will demonstrate how KDDI can reduce its baseband cooling system energy consumption by more than 70 percent compared to traditional gas coolant-based air-cooling solutions. Efficiencies can be further enhanced by the introduction of a heat reuse option that could yield a potential reduction of 80 percent in CO2 emissions. This is the first time a liquid cooling solution will be trialed in Japan highlighting KDDI’s commitment to sustainability and combatting climate change. 

Traditional air-cooling systems are noisy and require regular maintenance such as filter changes and re-gassing, however, Nokia’s Liquid Cooling solution is almost maintenance-free and virtually silent, making it ideal for buildings with tenants. Nokia’s base station liquid cooling functionality captures heat into liquid directly where it is generated and removes it from the site by liquid circulation. It supports the reduction of cooling-system-related CO2 emissions by more than 70 percent.

KDDI is also trialing Nokia’s Nokia AVA for Energy Efficiency solution which applies AI to support the challenge of rising energy consumption in networks. The solution helps to reduce overall energy bills by up to 20 percent and move towards more sustainable patterns of energy usage. Nokia AVA blends telecoms expertise, AI, and cloud-based delivery into a coherent energy control that dynamically adapts energy consumption to traffic levels while maintaining a premium user experience.

Nokia is committed to reducing the CO2 emissions generated by its technology. Nokia has committed to cut emissions by 50 percent between 2019 and 2030 as part of its updated science-based climate change targets, in line with a 1.5°C warming scenario. This target covers emissions across its own operations and portfolio, logistics, and electronics manufacturing. Nokia intends to continue its efforts to research and develop solutions that reduce CO2 emissions beyond this trial.

John Lancaster-Lennox, Head of Market Unit Japan at Nokia, said: “This trial is another milestone in Nokia’s commitment to sustainability and combatting climate change. Nokia was the first vendor to introduce this game-changing liquid cooling solution which supports operators in their quest to be more environmentally responsible while allowing them to achieve significant cost savings.”

Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious Announce Collaboration to Develop Transdermal Combination Drugs Targeting the Endocannabinoid System

Published

on

tetra-pharm-technologies-and-glysious-announce-collaboration-to-develop-transdermal-combination-drugs-targeting-the-endocannabinoid-system

The collaboration brings together Tetra Pharm Technologies’ expertise in enabling technology with Glysious’ proprietary transdermal drug delivery system, renowned for its effectiveness, comfort, and convenience.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration aimed at developing a ground-breaking transdermal drug delivery system complementing several of Tetra Pharm Technologies’ pipeline candidates. The joint invention aims to revolutionize transdermal release of “difficult-to-formulate” compounds targeting the endocannabinoid system.

Tetra Pharm Technologies has focused intensively on formulation expertise, that is, how the molecules are effectively integrated with a drug delivery system to reach their desired targets. Glysious has worked rigorously on the development of an adhesive patch for transdermal drug delivery since the company’s incorporation in 2020.
“The Glysious technology enables precision, sustained dosing, and allows for a high drug load and effective emptying of patches. The transdermal patches remain in place and are very comfortable and convenient to use, resulting in improved patient compliance. However, we have identified challenges with standard formulation strategies, not providing acceptable drug release due to shortcomings of the formulation matrix”, says Professor, Dr.Techn. Anne Ladegaard Skov, Chief Scientific Officer, Glysious.
Back in 2023 Glysious and Tetra Pharm Technologies performed early in-vitro feasibility tests, integrating Tetra Pharma Technologies’ proprietary enabling technology for delivery of poorly soluble compounds with Glysious’ patch.
Dr. Morten Allesø, Chief Scientific Officer, Tetra Pharm Technologies, adds: “Although both parties were aware of the uniqueness of our respective technologies, we were positively surprised to find a five-fold increase in performance of our combination product compared to conventional formulation technologies. This is truly remarkable, and we consider it our shared obligation to further advance this technology to the benefit of the patients.”
The objectives of the collaboration include conducting comprehensive in-vitro and in-vivo studies to evaluate the performance and efficacy of the combined drug delivery system. Additionally, Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious plan to pursue a common patent for the joint invention, ensuring that their innovative technology remains protected and exclusive.
“We are excited to collaborate with the innovative team in Tetra Pharm Technologies on this transdermal drug delivery system paving the way for commercialization and scaling of the Glysious technology within the pharma segment”, says Stina Bjerg Nielsen, Chief Executive Officer, Glysious.
Martin Rose, Chief Executive Officer, Tetra Pharm Technologies, concludes: “The collaboration represents a unique opportunity to harness the synergies between our respective technologies. By combining our expertise, we aim to develop a transdermal drug delivery system that offers superior efficacy, convenience, and patient compliance, supporting several of our pipeline programs”.
As part of the collaboration, the partners will exchange expertise, knowledge, and resources. In addition, Tetra Pharm Technologies and Glysious will conduct joint research, experiments, and tests as required for the development of a joint patent. The scope of the collaboration is focused on disease indications such as pain, sleep disorders, and appetite regulation.
