The eDVR Series is another leap forward. Thanks to eSSD technology, an eDVR reduces energy consumption by almost 45% over conventional DVRs. The energy saved in one year is equivalent to what’s absorbed by a mature tree in the same period.
DarkFighterS technology produces color images in ambient light as low as 0.0003 lux, significantly delaying the need for additional lighting. In dark-ness, users can set motion-triggered supplemental lighting instead of “always-on” lighting to reduce energy use while maintaining security.

We know that even small changes in our manufacturing processes can make a big difference. That's why we continue to research best practices to reduce waste and minimize footprint.
In 2024 alone, Hikvision purchased green-electricity certificates equivalent to 18,000 MWh of renewable power and generated 15,900 MWh of photovoltaic electricity itself.
By the end of 2024, rooftop PV capacity at our production bases reached 18.048 MW, increasing 27% year over year.
Photovoltaic Power Generation at Manufacturing Bases
By the end of 2024, rooftop PV capacity at our production bases reached 18.048 MW, increasing 27% year over year.
By adopting low-carbon equipment and processes, Hikvision saved nearly 1.5 million kWh of electricity annually, while reducing labor hours and overall energy consumption.
Hikvision continues to improve intelligent and green warehousing to reduce carbon emissions. Over 80,000 square meters of dark warehouse are deployed in Hikvision’s parks, with 100% coverage in AGV/CTU automated warehouses.
In logistics, Hikvision actively guides suppliers in transitioning to new energy vehicles, with 4,469 electric vehicles adopted to date. We have also increased reusable turnover-box usage from 20% to 30% , reducing packaging waste and supporting sustainable logistics operations.
We maximize the use of eco-friendly materials in product packaging. Using folded cardboards instead of expanded polyethylene to cushion the interior of product packaging alone can reduce our plastic use by 27.9 tons per year.
As an organization with a global reach, Hikvision understands the importance of ensuring that sustainability concepts are at the core of our daily operations around the world.
Rigorous standards guide Hikvision’s waste and recycling practices. In 2024, 33.05% of solid waste at Hikvision HQ was recycled. Enhanced product disassembly and recycling processes also led to a 24% increase in recovered resource value.
