Communication green base station is under construction

Should communication base stations be upgraded to low-carbon?

Upgrading to low-carbon base stations clearly contributes additional environmental and public health benefits. Although we focus on the data of communication base stations in China, our proposed low-carbon upgrading methods and strategies can provide policy references for optimizing communication infrastructures in many countries around the world.

Can a 5G base station promote green development of mobile communication facilities?

However, a significant reduction of ca. 42.8% can be achieved by optimizing the power structure and base station layout strategy and reducing equipment power consumption. Overall, this study provides a clear approach to assess the environmental impact of the 5G base station and will promote the green development of mobile communication facilities.

How can a communication base station reduce energy consumption?

Strategies such as applying solar energy generation facilities in base stations to replace part of the grid electricity or implementing active deep sleep in communication base stations to optimize energy management 7,8,9,10 have been applied to reduce the use of grid-supplied energy and lower the operating costs of communication systems.

How does a communication base station upgrade affect emissions?

(D) Total emissions of major pollutants (CO 2, NOₓ, SO 2, and PM 2.5) generated by the electricity consumption of communication base stations before and after the upgrade. Paired bars with the same color represent pre- and post-upgrade comparisons for the same pollutant. Emissions of all pollutants are significantly reduced after the upgrade.
