Summary:
|
This Recommendation establishes a comprehensive technical framework to support the global telecommunications industry in achieving carbon neutrality objectives. It introduces a lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) measurement methodology for base station sites, encompassing three pivotal components: energy consumption analytics, carbon emission quantification models, and cross-regional best practice case studies. Six core decarbonization pathways are systematically defined:
Intelligent energy-saving technologies (e.g., AI-driven dynamic power management);
Renewable energy integration systems (hybrid wind-solar-storage power supply architectures);
Infrastructure sharing mechanisms (multi-operator radio frequency resource coordination);
High-efficiency thermal management solutions (liquid cooling systems with ≤1.15 PUE);
Circular economy implementations (modular design with ≥95% component reusability);
Standardized monitoring frameworks compliant with ITU-T L.1450 specifications.
