Nokia AVA helps CSPs reduce energy bills by up to 20%

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

  • Energy consumption by Communications Service Providers (CSP) is set to increase due to rising traffic and network densification
  • Nokia's new AVA #energy Efficiency service applies Artificial Intelligence (AI) to further reduce #energy usage in #5g and multi-vendor legacy networks by up to 20%
  • The service is performance based and links CSP payments to achieved cost savings

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today launched its #nokia AVA #energy Efficiency service, applying AI to the challenge of rising #energy consumption in multi-vendor, multi-technology networks. 

The service helps Communications Service Providers (CSPs) to reduce #energy bills by up to 20 percent and move towards more sustainable patterns of #energy usage.    

Nokia AVA provides Artificial Intelligence (AI) services that can be delivered through the cloud.

#nokia AVA blends telecoms expertise, AI and cloud based delivery into a coherent service offering for #energy control that powers down parts of the radio network when traffic levels are low.

Machine Learning algorithms ensure that #energy savings are maximized without compromising network quality.

CSPs can also utilize analytics dashboards to benchmark the #energy efficiency of different base stations, including batteries and air conditioning units.

ABI Research forecasts that the #energy consumption of CSPs will increase 160% by 2030.

Although 5G networks are up to 90 percent more efficient than legacy 4G networks, overall #energy usage will increase due to rising traffic and the rollout of ever more dense networks.

New approaches, like Nokia's AVA #energy Efficiency service, are needed to break the connection between network evolution and growing #energy consumption.

The #nokia AVA #energy Efficiency service has already been deployed by CSPs around the world to reduce annual #energy usage.

Nokia offers CSPs choices in terms of commercial delivery models, including a standalone As-a-Service option or as part of a larger Managed Service contract.

In either case, CSP payments can be linked to the actual savings that are delivered by #nokia

Nokia is aligned with the ambition of limiting global warming to 1.5 Celsius.

In 2019, #nokia delivered zero-emission products to over 150 customers worldwide.46 percent less #energy was used on average in the customer base station sites #nokia modernized in 2019 compared to those where its customers did not modernize.

Don Alusha, Principal Analyst, ABI Research, said: "CSPs' #energy consumption in #5g networks is set to grow.

This is, in part, attributable to network densification and implementation of massive MIMO technology. The #nokia AVA #energy Efficiency service provides CSPs with an option to control #energy consumption as they proceed with their #5g rollouts.

Further, with Nokia's new service, CSPs can potentially avoid significant capital outlays in favor of consumption economics and variable costs over time."

Friedrich Trawoeger, Vice President, Operate and Managed Services at #nokia, said: "CSPs and vendors have a joint responsibility to reduce #energy consumption – for the good of the planet and shareholders alike.

Tangible and rapid results are achieved by harnessing the power of AI, and by moving towards more sustainable patterns of #energy use."
