According to a statement made available to Financial Street onTuesday, 5G uses just one-tenth of the energy per bit of 4G.

It explained that 5G would create a surge in power consumption due to the traffic increase that is predicted to total dozens of times the current levels, an issue that could only be addressed by thinking green from the start – at the design stage – of large-scale construction.

Zhongyang stated that the summit explored new Information Communications Technology innovations for industrial applications of ‘Diving into Digital for a Brighter Future’, proposing three focus areas of scenario, models and eco-system.

According to him, this aims to address challenges, seize new opportunities for digital transformation, and create value for the industry by continuously working with partners.
