Communication Green Base Station Maintenance Safety Briefing

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.

What happens when a base station is closed at night?

The average distance between neighboring communication base stations changed from 0.846 to 0.920 km after some communication base stations were closed at night. When a base station is shut down, its communication load is taken over by other neighboring base stations within the same base station unit.

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.

How effective are communication base stations in reducing air pollution?

In Figure 5 A, after implementing optimization measures to communication base stations, the cases of COPDs related to air pollution caused by communication base stations in 2021 would be reduced to 13,004 (65% reduction). The effectiveness of these optimizations becomes more pronounced in the following year.
