(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.
Our findings revealed that the nationwide electricity consumption would reduce to 54,101.60 GWh due to the operation of communication base stations (95% CI: 53,492.10–54,725.35 GWh) (Figure 2 C), marking a reduction of 35.23% compared with the original consumption. We also predicted the reduction of pollutant emissions after the upgrade.
In 2021, the annual electricity consumption from communication base stations was 83,525.81 GWh, and it is estimated to rise to 458,495.18 GWh by 2030 (average across three scenarios), with an increase of 448.93% compared with 2021.
Comparing data from 2021, 2025, and 2030, 41 we found that the electricity consumption due to communication base station operations in China increased annually.
