The National Energy Administration has announced the launch of a new initiative focused on 5G intelligent transportation systems. This project aims to enhance the integration of 5G technology with autonomous driving vehicles, which is expected to advance the development of intelligent transportation networks across the nation.
On March 21, 2025, the administration confirmed that the implementation of 5G technology will significantly boost operational efficiency for autonomous vehicles. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to promote sustainable energy solutions and enhance the capabilities of smart cities.
The project is set to improve the quality of transportation services by leveraging 5G connectivity to support real-time data sharing and communication among vehicles, infrastructure, and traffic management systems. This will facilitate safer and more efficient transportation options, reducing congestion and emissions.
According to projections, the 5G deployment is expected to be fully operational by December 2024. The initiative will focus on ensuring that there is no dependence on external water and electricity resources while implementing smart grid technologies. It will also explore the potential of big data analytics for ongoing maintenance and control of intelligent transportation systems.
This project is anticipated to enhance the energy efficiency of transportation systems by integrating advanced analytics and predictive maintenance capabilities, which can lead to cost savings and improved service delivery.
The administration also highlighted that the initiative aligns with national efforts to foster innovation in energy technologies and ensure that the energy sector meets modern demands in a sustainable manner.
