Managing traffic - electricity ratio
Managing traffic - electricity ratio – Almost 5 times improvement of the network’s energy efficiency on the last 5 years. At first glance, there seems to be no significant connection between watching TV series on streaming platforms and generating carbon emissions. The path by which video content reaches us, however, requires a significant amount of electricity - from the storage of base stations, the transfer of data between them and data centers, the transmission of signals to the device at home, etc. And the energy used has its own impact on the environment.
