How much power does 5G consume?

Many Bits Per Second Takes A Lot of Electricity5G Will only Increase Our Appetite For DataData-Driven Energy ConsumptionSustainable ElectricityConsequences of 5G For The EnvironmentBig Tech likes to claim that their data centers run on green electricity, but even if they do, this still counts toward global consumption. Do we build solar panels, wind turbines, etc. only to have all the energy gobbled up by the data industry? The point is, if total energy consumption grows as indicated above, the energy provided by the use of s...See more on jrseco arXiv [PDF]
