Leaner, Greener Technology Supports 40% Energy Efficiency Gains for Comcast's Nationwide Network
PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESSWIRE / July 8, 2024 / Comcast announced it has reduced the electricity it takes to deliver each byte of data across its network by 40% since 2019.
2024年7月8日,康卡斯特宣佈自2019年以來,通過對其網絡進行全國範圍的虛擬化和基於雲的技術轉型,將傳輸每字節數據所需的電費降低了40%。
The efficiency gains have been achieved through Comcast's ongoing nationwide network transformation to virtualized, cloud-based technologies that deliver faster broadband speeds and greater reliability with less equipment, less space, and less energy per byte.
通過康卡斯特全國範圍內的網絡轉型爲基於虛擬化、雲技術的技術,實現了效率的提升,使得帶寬速度更快,可靠性更高,而且每字節的用電設備更少、所需空間更小、能源消耗更低。
"By moving more computing power to our edge cloud, we can leverage leaner, greener technology to process more customer traffic with less electricity," said Elad Nafshi, Executive Vice President and Chief Network Officer at Comcast.
康卡斯特的執行副總裁兼首席網絡官埃拉德·納夫希表示:「通過將更多的計算能力移動到邊緣雲,我們可以利用更綠色,更高效的技術來處理更多的客戶流量,以使用更少的電力。」
These next-generation technologies will further drive efficiency through real-time performance visibility that can detect issues and self-heal - delivering a service that is better for both our customers and the planet.

Comcast has a goal to be carbon neutral by 2035 for Scope 1 and 2 emissions across its global operations. With purchased electricity accounting for the majority of its emissions, Comcast is investing in clean, renewable energy to power its network and operations, as well as continuing to improve network energy efficiency.
康卡斯特的目標是到2035年讓在全球運營範圍內的第 1 和第 2 運營階段排放量達到中立。由於購買電力佔排放量的絕大多數,康卡斯特正在投資清潔、可再生能源來爲其網絡和業務提供動力,並繼續提高網絡能耗效率。
Comcast decreased the electricity per consumed byte from 18.4 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per terabyte (TB) in 2019 to 11.0 kWh/TB in 2023.1
康卡斯特將2019年每TB(千兆字節)數據消耗的電力從18.4千瓦時(kWh)降至2023年的11.0 kWh/Tb。
"We're proud of the progress we've achieved through Comcast innovation, but we're not stopping here," Nafshi added. "We're continuing to work with business partners to embed energy efficiency into future generations of technology so that we continue on the path to a greener, cleaner internet."
「我們爲康卡斯特的創新取得的進展感到驕傲,但我們並沒有止步。」Nafshi 補充道,「我們將繼續與業務夥伴合作,將能源效率嵌入到未來的技術中,以便我們繼續走向更加綠色、更加清潔的因特網。」
Comcast set a goal to double network energy efficiency by 2030, cutting the electricity per consumed byte of data in half.
康卡斯特制定了目標,在2030年將網絡能源效率提高一倍,將每消耗字節的用電量降至原來的一半。
Business partners like Hewlett Packard Enterprise are supporting Comcast's network transformation to a virtualized cable modem termination system (vCMTS) with new energy efficient technologies that deliver more network traffic at a fraction of the physical footprint and energy load of previous generation technologies.
像惠普企業這樣的業務夥伴,正在支持康卡斯特的網絡轉型成爲虛擬化的電纜調制解調器終端系統 (vCMTS),使用了新的高效能源技術,同時可提供更多的網絡流量,卻只需上一代技術的一小部分的物理空間和能源負載。
"Our innovation with the HPE ProLiant DL110 drives network transformation with open, high-performance, energy-efficient solutions, and we're proud to have collaborated with Comcast to advance its initiatives and support its sustainability goals," said Phil Cutrone, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Service Providers, OEM, Telco, Major Accounts at Hewlett Packard Enterprise. "The collaboration demonstrates the impact across the value chain - from cutting the carbon footprint of technologies that drive the network, to improving the end customer experience."
惠普企業的高性能 HPE ProLiant DL110 與康卡斯特的合作推動了網絡轉型,用開放的高性能、高效能源方案實現了創新。我們爲與康卡斯特的合作感到自豪,支持其可持續性目標。”惠普企業服務提供商副總裁兼總經理 Phil Cutrone 表示,「這種合作展示了在價值鏈上的影響——從減少驅動網絡的技術的碳足跡,到改善最終客戶體驗。」
