Energy-Saving Solutions for Estonian Telecommunication Sites
In a significant move towards sustainability, Elisa Estonia is set to equip approximately 100 mobile network base stations with new lithium batteries and introduce an AI-based energy platform. This solution allows for the disconnection of base stations from the electrical grid during peak energy. Recent energy price hikes have hit the telecommunications sector hard, compounding the increased energy use involved with building out networks, traffic growth, and the ongoing transition away from legacy technologies. The new Site Energy Orchestration solution from Ericsson acts as an intelligent bridge between the radio access network (RAN) and power grids, optimizing operations to boost energy cost savings, reduce carbon footprint and open new revenue streams. The pathway targets a 45% emission reduction by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050 for the. As the deployment of 5G technology accelerates globally, telecom operators are increasingly focused on improving energy efficiency in telecom sites.
