How to build an energy-efficient wireless network? A blueprint for green networks

Available On Demand

To help tackle climate change and reduce network operational costs, energy saving has become a priority for the telecoms industry. Recently skyrocketing energy prices increased further the importance of energy efficiency. The operators that delay their green transformation are endangering their long-term competitiveness.

Energy-saving measures built into the 5G standard may be offset by rising data traffic, paradoxically resulting in higher levels of energy consumption and emissions. The energy strategies of operators are, however, taking a holistic perspective that includes retiring legacy networks and buying power-efficient equipment and software.

This report-launch webinar will gather international experts from around the mobile value chain in a discussion aimed to better understand the main culprits behind our burgeoning energy consumption, the key motivators driving the move towards more sustainable networks, the solutions that bring us closer to that goal, as well as the surprising global disparities on the path to sustainability.
