With the aim of leading the energy transition, E-REDES has adopted 5G as an important catalyst for the smart grid in Portugal, ensuring that E-REDES' critical installations have resilient, efficient and secure communications.
Given the geographical position, the hybrid solar PV / WT / BG system along with appropriate energy storage devices is an effective solution for developing green cellular connectivity. It offers a potential solution for bridging the gap between high data rates and long idle times in the 5G mobile network .
To properly examine an energy-optimised network, it is very crucial to select the most suitable EE metric for 5G networks. EE is the ratio of transmitted bits for every joule of energy expended. Therefore, while measuring it, different perspectives need to be considered such as from the network or user’s point of view.
5G cellular network operates on a millimetre wave spectrum i.e., between 28GHz-60GHz along with LTE. Certain unlicensed frequencies such as 3.5 GHz, 3.6 GHz and 26 GHz are also being explored for fulfilling demands of high throughput and capacity [4, 5, 6].
