These requirements will evolve over time following the progress of Open RAN standardization and market development of Open RAN solutions. The overall objective is to promote a fast pace for the development of Open RAN solutions in Europe, across other regions and ultimately accelerate the global adoption of the technology. It is expected that Open RAN networks will gradually become more energy efficient than traditional RAN, benefiting from Open RAN concepts such as cloudification, disaggregation and native AI.

The energy efficiency goals and targets to support sustainable Open RAN deployments have also been addressed. Release 2 builds on those requirements and focuses in particular on intelligence, orchestration, transport and cloud infrastructure, with the aim of promoting a fully automated and interoperable Open RAN system. Release 1 focused on the main scenarios and technical requirements for each of the building blocks of a multi-vendor RAN. It is the result of the work carried out under the MoU on Open RAN signed by Deutsche Telekom AG, Orange S.A., Telefónica S.A., TIM S.p.A.
