How many 5G base stations are built in China?
As 5G serves as the foundation for the construction of new infrastructure, China, as the world leader in 5G base station construction, has already built over 1.4 million 5G base stations in alone. In the same year, 5G base stations in China produced approximately 49.2 million tons of CO 2 eq.
Are 5G base stations sustainable?
However, due to their high radio frequency and limited coverage, the construction and operation of 5G base stations can lead to significant energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. To address this challenge, scholars have focused on developing sustainable 5G base stations.
How much CO2 will China's 5G network produce?
Under the model predicted 5G base stations, China's 5G network could yield 0.15–0.29 GtCO2 /yr emissions subject to the nation's BDDL from 40 to 80 % by . Both 5G base stations and CO 2 emissions are significantly lower than the previous estimates.
Does China have a 5G network?
Given that China currently has the largest 5G network in the world (∼1.53 million base stations by the end of , Table S1) and that base station number was projected by up to 6–8 million by (CCID Consulting, ), concerns are being expressed regarding 5G mobile networks' environmental effects and sustainability.
How much carbon does 5G emit in China in ?
The results indicate that, due to the high carbon emissions resulting from the new infrastructure, the carbon emissions of 5G base stations in China in amounted to 49.2 MtCO 2 eq.
How much carbon does a 5G base station produce?
Previous research has estimated that a single 5G base station will produce approximately 30.2 ~ 33.5 tCO 2 eq throughout its life cycle (Ding et al., ; Guo et al., 2022a). Consequently, the carbon emissions from 5G base stations in China in amounted to approximately 49.2 MtCO 2 eq.
