Ericsson believes it is possible to scale up 5G, while simultaneously reducing total network energy consumption. By working through all three steps of our approach, we believe it is possible to break the energy curve in mobile networks.

Sustainable networks handbook

Operate intelligently to save energy and improve user experience. Explore the innovative solutions that leading communication service providers are adopting on their journey toward high-performing, programmable networks that are more autonomous and energy-efficient.

Empowering sustainability report

The best networks are not just fast and reliable. They are also energy efficient and sustainable. Explore how benchmarking for enhanced network performance, energy efficiency and user experience is vital and helps achieve this.

The demand on mobile networks will continue to grow and without action, energy use and related emissions will too. In order to reach Net Zero, it is important to reduce energy consumption and break the energy curve.

Energy consumption in mobile networks has increased over time. About the same increase with each new mobile generation. We must advance how we plan, deploy and operate mobile networks to break the upgoing trajectory of energy consumption.

Redefining the best network

The best network no longer means just fast and reliable. It’s time to redefine the ‘best network’ as high performing, energy efficient and sustainable.

A holistic approach to address RAN energy efficiency

Why is the energy challenge so important for the mobile industry? Mobile networks have the potential to reduce global energy consumption by delivering, among other things, reliable remote working and video conferencing, thereby reducing the need for travel, and commuting. In this blog authors Johan Hultell and Michael Begley unveils how you can scale 5G to meet the four-fold traffic increase expected by 2025, while aiming to reduce the absolute network energy consumption.
