Powering 5G cell sites may rack up big costs for operators
Those edge computing sites will need electricity. “The amount of energy is increasing, and not just from the radio resources but also from the compute side, which will be transmitting into
Energy Consumption of 5G, Wireless Systems and the Digital Ecosystem
“Despite 5G consuming less power than 4G per unit of traffic, the overall energy consumption is still much higher, driven by more power-thirsty radios and network densification.
