Admittedly we might be moving on to 6G by then.<\/p>\n<p>One other catch is that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> says &#8220;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a>, 4GLTE or future generations of wireless will also help facilitate these savings<\/em>,&#8221; which isn&#8217;t quite the same as the headline claims that only mention 5G.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Mark Evans, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> CEO, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ultrafast connectivity can play a significant part in rebuilding Britain whilst helping to green the economy, and at O2 we are committed to playing our part.<\/p>\n<p>Our \u2018Greener connected future\u2019 report sets out a vision for how connected solutions enabled by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a> and 5G could power a green revolution over the next decade and beyond.

Any such report would also need to be fully independent from mobile operators in order to avoid any vested interests getting in the way.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile it&#8217;s worth pointing out that 5G networks are aiming to be more energy efficient (e.g. more data speed for lower power consumption) than earlier standards.
