What are some realistic ways that operators can increase the sustainability of their mobile networks, while reducing operational expenditures related to energy usage?
At the recent Telco Sustainability Forum virtual event (available on-demand here), Turkcell's Director of Access Network Mustafa Karakoc provided an in-depth...
Energy consumption is becoming a pressing issue for telcos, driven by the global energy crisis. High global energy prices, triggered by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, have pushed up Operational Expenditure (OPEX), draining cashflow and thereby constraining infrastructure investment. The GSMA has estimated that the telco...
Open RAN enables intelligent, data-driven RAN optimization and control, according to an ABI Research analyst
Whether improving the power efficiency of mobile networks is truly the “highest priority” for operators, as Saqlain Ali, senior analyst at ABI Research, claimed at Open RAN Forum, it...
Vodafone UK intends to deploy 1,500 of the new Ericsson radios across its network by April 2022
Ericsson last year warned in a report that 5G has the potential to "dramatically increase" energy consumption, arguing that is "an industry responsibility" to address this reality. This...
Director of Product Innovation at NXP Semiconductors Amanda McGregor discusses the impact on energy consumption of the growing popularity of smart devices in our homes and what can be done on the hardware level to ensure device optimization.
Environmental caveat: e-waste
New technologies are fighting an uphill battle to reduce the environmental decay from century-old processes that are both inefficient and wasteful. The "internet of things" has the potential to reduce emissions from those processes and create a truly green earth. But while green use...
