How much electricity does a communication base station use a year?
In , the annual electricity consumption from communication base stations was 83,525.81 GWh, and it is estimated to rise to 458,495.18 GWh by (average across three scenarios), with an increase of 448.93% compared with .
Do communication base station operations increase electricity consumption in China?
Comparing data from , , and , 41 we found that the electricity consumption due to communication base station operations in China increased annually.
Will communication base stations reduce electricity consumption?
Our findings revealed that the nationwide electricity consumption would reduce to 54,101.60 GWh due to the operation of communication base stations (95% CI: 53,492.10–54,725.35 GWh) (Figure 2 C), marking a reduction of 35.23% compared with the original consumption. We also predicted the reduction of pollutant emissions after the upgrade.
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.
Should China upgrade to low-carbon base stations?
These outcomes demonstrate that upgrading to low-carbon base stations not only ensures economic feasibility but also delivers significant environmental and public health benefits, reinforcing the strategic value of decarbonizing China’s communication infrastructure.
Can a low-carbon base station improve public health?
The results of this study indicate that low-carbon upgrades of base stations can not only significantly reduce the operational costs and carbon emissions of communication systems but also reduce pollution and bring considerable public health benefits. However, this transformation still needs to overcome multidimensional challenges.
