ZTE achieved a significant milestone by successfully implementing a zero-carbon energy solution for a telecom site of Telefónica GermanyThis successful case provides valuable experience for future applications and challenges for the supply of rural areas

BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 29, 2024 /CNW/ — ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a global leading provider of information and communication technology solutions, has achieved a significant milestone by successfully implementing a zero-carbon energy solution that supplies a telecom site of Telefónica Germany. This groundbreaking project utilizes ZTE’s innovative green power solution that combines solar energy, methanol-powered hydrogen fuel cells, and intelligent energy storage.

The collaboration between ZTE and Telefónica Germany marks the first commercial deployment of such a green solution in Germany. For network operation, Telefónica Germany uses technology from one of its national network suppliers. Challenges arise when it comes to accessing grid power in remote locations, as it often involves lengthy construction periods and high costs. To overcome these obstacles, ZTE explored a new green and efficient solution for Telefónica Germany that meet the demands of a rapidly changing world. The final implementation took into account environmental friendliness, sustainability, and affordability, demonstrating superior performance in multiple areas.

The proposed solution from ZTE solves multiple challenges by combining solar power with methanol-powered hydrogen fuel cells. By relying primarily on solar energy and supplementing with hydrogen fuel cells during winter, the solution achieves 100% power availability, ensuring uninterrupted energy supply for the telecom site – and therefore smooth communication services for the residents in the remote area as well as eliminating worries about disruptions with their connectivity to the global network.

The green solution stands out for its minimal carbon footprint. The combination of solar energy and methanol-powered hydrogen fuel cells results in only water and a minimal amount of carbon dioxide as byproducts. This not only reduces carbon emissions but also aligns with the high standards for sustainable development set by the German government and enterprises. By adopting this ultimate green energy solution, Telefónica Germany demonstrates its commitment to environmental responsibility and sets an example for other companies in the telecommunications industry.

Furthermore, the solution, leverages methanol hydrogen production within the module, and thereby eliminates the risks associated with hydrogen storage and transportation, making it safer and more environment-friendly compared to traditional hydrogen fuel cells. Backed up with this reliable and secure energy supply, Telefónica Germany delivers excellent communication services without compromising safety or sustainability at the pilot site.

ZTE’s green solution can be extended to other European operators, contributing to the industry-wide goal of carbon neutrality. By sharing its expertise, ZTE is dedicated to driving the telecommunications industry towards a greener and more sustainable future.

ZTE has been committed to continuous innovations for carbon neutrality. The company will actively explore new and diverse application scenarios in collaboration with its partners, making substantial contributions to both society and the environment.

English Courses for Professionals (2026): EF English Live Recognized for Building Confidence in Workplace Communication by Expert Consumers

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Expert Consumers has featured EF English Live in its 2026 review of English courses for professionals, with particular emphasis on how its online learning model helps in building confidence for workplace communication. The review looks at a practical issue for working adults: knowing English grammar or vocabulary does not always make it easy to speak during meetings, presentations, interviews, or conversations with international colleagues. EF English Live addresses that gap through live classes, real-life simulations, and personalized feedback.

English Courses for Professionals

EF English Live – an online English school offering live lessons, AI-assisted feedback, and flexible self-study

EF English Live’s learning platform has served 20 million students and delivers 2 million lessons each year. Its teaching method is backed by 60 years of experience in language education.

What Did Expert Consumers Review?

Expert Consumers reviewed EF English Live’s teaching system for online learners. The method places speaking at the core of each course and uses workplace situations, interactive exercises, and teacher-led practice to help learners use English in practical settings.

The course includes one-on-one private classes, small group classes, and 2,000+ hours of self-study activities. Learners can book sessions across time zones and access exercises on any device.

Why Does Speaking Practice Matter in Professional Settings?

Workplace communication often requires more than correct grammar. Employees may need to explain an idea clearly, respond without a prepared script, ask questions in a meeting, or adapt their language for colleagues and clients from different countries.

EF English Live uses simulated conversations and scenarios to recreate these situations. Learners receive repeated speaking practice in a guided setting, where mistakes provide useful information for the next lesson. This follows the course’s principle that consistent practice supports measurable progress.

How Does the Learning Program Work?

Each learner starts by taking the EFSET assessment, which measures their current English proficiency. An EF English Live course consultant then uses the result, along with the learner’s goals and available study time, to prepare an individual plan.

The program includes:

Private lessons with certified EF Teachers, including feedback and goal settingInteractive group classes with learners from all over the worldMore than 2,000 hours of videos, vocabulary quizzes, reading tasks, grammar games, and other self-study material

This structure gives professionals several ways to practice the same skills. Teacher-led private classes, group classes, and independent exercises reinforce each other throughout the course.

How Do Teachers and AI Support Each Learner?

EF English Live has more than 3,000 certified and trained EF Teachers working across every time zone. During classes, teachers use AI technology to assess a learner’s strengths and areas for improvement. The system supplies personalized, real-time feedback, while the teacher guides the conversation and answers questions.

This pairing keeps instruction personal while using learning data to inform future sessions. It also shows learners which skills need more practice.

What Flexibility Is Available for Busy Professionals?

Private classes, group classes, and self-study materials are available online. Learners can book lessons 24/7 and access them from multiple devices, accommodating work hours, travel, or family commitments.

Course pricing is personalized. A course consultant reviews the learner’s English level, objectives, schedule, and budget before preparing a study plan and price.

How Does the Satisfaction Guarantee Work?

EF English Live also has a 12-week Satisfaction Guarantee under stated participation requirements. Learners must complete at least one teacher-led lesson, either private or group, and one self-study module each week. Those who are not satisfied after the first 12 weeks can cancel within the following month and request a refund under the program terms.

Takeaway

Expert Consumers’ 2026 assessment presents EF English Live as a structured option for professionals who want workplace English practice with live teachers, flexible access, and personalized feedback. Its emphasis on speaking places everyday professional communication at the heart of the learning experience.

The full review can be found on the Expert Consumers website.

DOJO Launches BLAST10K Fresh: UK’s First Vape with INSTA-JUICED™ Technology and Industry-first Matcha Strawberry Flavour

Published

on

By

LONDON, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DOJO today announces the launch of the BLAST10K Fresh, the first device in the UK market to feature proprietary INSTA-JUICED™ technology. Utilizing a unique 0+10ml freshness-locking structure, this innovative vape isolates e-liquid from the coil until activation. Unlike traditional devices where prolonged contact with the coil can lead to oxidation and stale flavours, INSTA-JUICED™ keeps the liquid pristine. This ensures that the flavour profile remains locked at its peak—delivering vibrant sweetness and sharp cooling—effectively providing a “just-opened” experience with every puff. This design addresses consumer concerns regarding flavour degradation, retaining over 70% more freshness than other products even after long-term storage.

At the heart of the BLAST10K Fresh is DOJO’s advanced COREX BLAST technology paired with a Dual Mesh coil design. This combination guarantees consistent heat distribution and optimal wicking, delivering a True Fresh Flavour that remains vibrant from the first puff to the last. By eliminating flavour drop-off across its 10,000-puff lifespan, the device ensures a Long-Lasting experience where every draw tastes as authentic as the beginning. Supporting this performance is a robust 1000mAh rechargeable battery, offering up to three days of use on a single charge, alongside SSS Leak-Resistant Tech for superior leak protection.

The launch introduces eight exclusive, nature-inspired flavours, headlined by the industry-first Matcha Strawberry. This sophisticated profile is inspired by the delicate balance of British Malling Centenary strawberries and Japanese Okumidori matcha, capturing their authentic essences with a smooth, creamy finish to offer a premium café-style experience. Other notable launches include Pina Colada, which evokes the tropical notes of Costa Rican pineapple and coconut, and Berry Lemonade, a zesty fusion reminiscent of strawberries, raspberries, and Meyer lemons. These join existing favourites like Rhubarb Custard Sweet and Blackcurrant GB, expanding the BLAST series portfolio to 40 distinct options.

Crucially, the BLAST10K Fresh maintains full compatibility with the broader BLAST ecosystem, supporting both new 0+10ml pods and existing 2+8ml pods for seamless user transition. “The BLAST10K Fresh redefines premium vaping by solving flavour stagnation,” stated a DOJO spokesperson. “We invite consumers to experience unparalleled consistency and freshness.”

The DOJO BLAST10K Fresh will be available at selected UK retailers soon.

About DOJO

DOJO is dedicated to providing adult vapers with innovative, high-quality devices that prioritise flavour integrity and user satisfaction through cutting-edge technology.
