[PDF Version]The power consumption of a single 5G station is 2.5 to 3.5 times higher than that of a single 4G station. The main factor behind this increase in 5G power consumption is the high power usage of the active antenna unit (AAU). Under a full workload, a single station uses nearly 3700W.
The data here all comes from operators on the front lines, and we can draw the following valuable conclusions: The power consumption of a single 5G station is 2.5 to 3.5 times higher than that of a single 4G station. The main factor behind this increase in 5G power consumption is the high power usage of the active antenna unit (AAU).
Load Collaboration The 5G intelligent power works with loads to dynamically adjust the output voltage of the power supply based on the intelligent algorithm, power of the load device, and power cable loss to achieve the optimal end-to-end power supply efficiency.
Multiple bands in one site will be the typical configuration in the 5G era. The proportion of sites with more than five bands will increase from 3% in 2016 to 45% in 2023. As a result, the maximum power consumption of a site will be higher than 10 kW, in a site where there is more than 10 bands, the power consumption will exceed 20 kW.

We reveal a carbon eficiency trap of 5G mobile networks leading to additional carbon emissions of 23.82 ± 1.07 Mt in China, caused by the spatiotemporal misalignment between cellular trafic and energy consumption in mobile networks.
The network traffic data were collected from China Mobile. We carried out a city-level measurement in Nanchang and collected fine-grained records on the network traffic of all 4G and 5G base stations for one week in May 2022. The network traffic data cover 12,264 4G base stations and 2,159 5G base stations.
