Low-carbon upgrading to China''s communications base stations
Summary It is important for China''s communications industry to reduce its reliance on grid-powered systems to lower base station energy costs and meet national carbon targets. This
In this scheme, the base station is powered by solar panels, the electrical grid, and energy storage units to ensure the stability of energy supply. When there is a surplus of energy supply, the excess electricity generated by the solar panels is stored in the energy storage units.
The optimization covers configurations of base station energy supply equipment (e.g., investment in photovoltaics [PV] and energy storage capacity) and operational locations (e.g., urban vs. rural deployments).
State Grid Jiangsu is one of the largest provincial power grid companies of the State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC). It serves 46.2 million energy consumers. In 2018, State Grid Jiangsu's power communication networks mainly used optical fibers in offices, power supply stations, and 35 kV or higher-voltage substations.
A small-scale communication base station communication antenna with an average power of 2 kW can consume up to 48 kWh per day. 4,5,6 Therefore, the low-carbon upgrade of communication base stations and systems is at the core of the telecommunications industry's energy use issues.
