Hosted by the GSMA at MWC25, the Tower &amp; Fibre Summit debated how best to overcome these barriers to address the rising demand for more connectivity to support widespread adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and other advanced services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One priority is to lower energy and maintenance costs. Chris R\u00fcttimann, Head of Cell Tower Infrastructure at Swisscom, explained that with the right data insights, operators can make very big savings on cooling costs, in particular. By analysing data collected by its Infravista system, Swisscom has reduced the energy it requires for air conditioning by 90%, for example, helping to lower its annual energy bill by \u20ac3.7 million. \u201cThat\u2019s just the beginning \u2013 we are just starting,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Swisscom had more than 300 types of cooling equipment when Chris R\u00fcttimann joined the business. He has since reduced that to four, while also extending the timeline for site maintenance from one year to two years. \u201cYou can get 20-25% [additional energy] from putting solar on your cell towers, so that should be the goal in the future for our industry,\u201d he added.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, fibre technology is getting better and more efficient. &nbsp;Jan Bongaerts, Senior Vice President of YOFC, described hollow core fibre \u201cas the most exciting development at this moment in our company\u201d. As the traffic travels through air, rather than through glass, YOFC says latency is reduced by 31%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-driving-densification-through-small-cells\"><strong>Driving densification through small cells<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even so, relatively high interest rates mean investments in new infrastructure have to be very carefully calibrated, noted Javier Valle Fern\u00e1ndez, Global Customer &amp; Product Development Director at Cellnex Telecom. &nbsp;While a push for network densification is driving growing demand for small cells, he stressed the need for a low-cost deployment model. Cellnex, which is technology agnostic, offers small cells-as-a-service to mobile operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vantage Towers, which manages 86,000 macro sites, has piloted the deployment of small cells embedded in shop signs to provide coverage across several hundred metres. But Jaime Abril, Head of Business and Product Development of Vantage Towers, noted such an approach is difficult to scale because you have to negotiate site-by-site. Instead, Vantage would like to secure access to publicly owned street furniture with minimal administrative fees. \u201cWe hope the [EU] Gigabit Infrastructure Act will help,\u201d Jaime Abril said. \u201cWe will see how this is executed across the different European markets, especially at municipal level.\u201d While cautioning the rollout will take time, he predicted that small cells \u201cwill be massive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also praised a model developed by the UK, which employs a neutral host to provide in-building coverage on behalf of all operators. \u201cThis is a move we are very excited about and we hope it will gradually be adopted in continental Europe,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vantage Towers offers its customers \u201cpower-as-a-service\u201d, employing renewable energy and efficiency measures to lower costs and greenhouse gas emissions as much as possible. &nbsp;Javier Valle Fern\u00e1ndez highlighted opportunities to generate new revenues by, for example, co-locating batteries with cell towers to help balance the electricity grid. Speakers also flagged growing demand to mount sensors and electric vehicle charging points on towers, as well as the potential to use base stations to provide far edge computing capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-seeking-economies-of-scale\"><strong>Seeking economies of scale<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even with these opportunities, the mobile infrastructure market is seeing multiple rounds of consolidation and delayering, as players look to build economies of scale, noted Lee Sanders, Managing Partner at Aetha Consulting. \u201cIs Spain the future?\u201d he asked, where there could be consolidation to just two radio access networks.&nbsp; He said that one project by Aetha Consulting found that RAN sharing could reduce the number of sites required by 30% (lowering operating costs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For mobile network operators, financial pressures mean \u201cmoving from macro sites to small cells is, to an extent, a last resort,\u201d Lee Sanders added. \u201cAnd if you look at the supply side factors, you have got more spectrum coming online, antenna technology is moving fast&#8230;huge capacity increases.\u201d These factors could be enough to accommodate the current traffic growth of 14% a year, he suggested, but AI might \u201cdrive data traffic growth and change the profile of it\u201d by making it more symmetric.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, massive investment \u2013 in the region of US$ 400 billion \u2013 is still required, cautioned Lorraine Carlos Salazar, Senior Knowledge Expert at McKinsey &amp; Company. Although there was an upturn in capex in 2024, \u201cmuch of that growth is not really coming into towers and fibres, but going into data centres,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the end of 2024, there were 5.1 million towers deployed globally, up only modestly from 5 million in 2023, Lorraine Carlos Salazar noted. Many operators are now moving into network sharing in Asia, as well as Europe, as the network is no longer seen as a source of distinctiveness, she added, recommending that tower companies look beyond their core business for growth. \u201cThere is a big play here for tower cos to think about using their assets \u2026 to build the next generation infrastructure for AI,\u201d she suggested. &nbsp;In the next 3-5 years, by McKinsey\u2019s count, there are plans to build 2,500 to 2,600 new data centres, driving further demand for fibre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gsma.com\/solutions-and-impact\/technologies\/networks\/gsma_resources\/mwc25-barcelona-tower-fibre-summit-on-demand\/\">Watch on-demand<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-gsma-banner-img-bg-1-col banner_img-bg-1-col_block is-flattened\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover banner_img-bg-1-col_container gsma-load-hidden\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-0 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#907281\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"688\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-43307\" alt=\"Four ascending red 3D blocks create a staircase effect against a gray grid background.
