So when the inter-cell distance is too large, it is necessary to increase the distance between cells, thus reducing the power consumption of the base station. In the actual network, in order to reduce the energy loss caused by frequent switching, the following two methods can usually be used: increase the distance between cells.
Data centres – at least at the scale seen today – are relatively new actors in the energy system at the global level. Today, electricity consumption from data centres is estimated to amount to around 415 terawatt hours (TWh), or about 1.5% of global electricity consumption in 2024. It has grown at 12% per year over the last five years.
Because switching is a continuous process and the base station is a device that works periodically, the switching loss accounts for a large proportion of the total power consumption of the base station.
Total annual U.S. electricity consumption hit a record high in 2024, and that ceiling could rise if data centers continue expanding at their current pace. U.S. data centers consumed 183 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity in 2024, according to IEA estimates.
As a result, the same level of demand for digital services and AI is met with a reduced electricity consumption footprint. This unlocks energy savings of more than 15%, with global electricity demand from data centres reaching around 970 TWh by 2035. As a result, 2.6% of global electricity demand goes to data centres.
Lawmakers and utility companies have faced pressure in some states to protect residents from blackouts and higher electricity bills as U.S. data centers expand their footprint. Utilities often must make expensive upgrades to power grids so they can handle increased energy demands from new data centers.
