P.I. Works Joins RAI-6Green Project to Drive Energy-Efficient and Resilient Networks

P.I. Works is proud to announce its participation in the Robust and AI Native 6G Green Networks (RAI-6Green) project, an ambitious initiative led by the CELTIC-NEXT Eureka Cluster along with organizations such as KTH and Turkcell, Tele2. This project is poised to address the critical need for energy-efficient and resilient next-generation networks, and P.I. Works is honored to play a central role in implementing AI in RAN. 

Our involvement in RAI-6Green builds upon the expertise gained from our previous collaboration on the AI4Green project. AI4Green marked a pivotal moment for P.I. Works, where we showcased the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in optimizing network operations and reducing energy consumption. Through AI-driven solutions, P.I. Works has consistently demonstrated the ability to balance energy efficiency with superior network performance, ensuring robust and reliable connectivity for users. 

Central to P.I. Works’ involvement in RAI-6Green is its focus on energy savings especially within the O-RAN (Open Radio Access Network) framework. As part of this effort, P.I. Works’ advanced energy saving rApp will be deployed on the O-RAN RIC (Radio Intelligent Controller)—to enable energy-efficient operations, which is designed to optimize energy consumption across networks without compromising performance or quality of service. By leveraging the flexibility and intelligence of the O-RAN architecture, ensuring seamless integration and efficient energy utilization. 

Additionally, P.I. Works is contributing to the development of the Battery Lifetime Extender (BLE) module, a critical innovation aimed at extending battery life during power outages especially during disaster times where service continuity is crucial. This module enables the seamless shutdown of specific Radio Access Technology (RAT) layers to conserve energy while maintaining essential connectivity. This feature is particularly vital in disaster scenarios, where network resilience can be a matter of life by incorporating advanced AI algorithms, the module can analyze real-time data from network alarms to identify power issues more accurately and optimize battery usage dynamically. AI-driven predictive analytics further enhance the module’s capability to anticipate potential failures and take proactive measures, ensuring efficient resource management and improved resilience during outages. 

Through its leadership in RAN Automation and energy-saving technologies, P.I. Works reinforces its commitment to building sustainable and high-performing networks. These contributions underscore the company's dedication to addressing the challenges of rising energy demands in telecommunications, ensuring that network operators can meet network sustainability and resiliency goals without sacrificing performance. 

What sets P.I. Works apart is our unwavering focus on sustainability and technological leadership. The RAI-6Green project aims to improve end-to-end energy efficiency by an impressive 40%, a goal made possible through collaborative innovation. Partners from various domains bring their unique strengths to this initiative, working together to integrate AI-driven technologies into the network ecosystem. This ambitious target aligns with the broader movement toward renewable energy adoption and sustainable practices within the industry. 

Together with our partners, we are committed to delivering innovative solutions that set new benchmarks for energy-efficient communication systems. Stay tuned for updates as we push the boundaries of what’s possible in network sustainability and performance.
