Abstract
A computer implemented method for energy savings management for cells of a sector or a base station of a communication network. The sector or base station has co-located cells that operate on different frequency bands. The method is performed by obtaining a default energy savings plan that calls for fully shutting down at least one of the cells for a first time period and provides a first amount of energy savings; evaluating energy savings achievable by using partial shutdown in cells and determining a second time period of partial shutdown that is needed for achieving the first amount of energy savings; obtaining a third time period that is usable for energy savings actions; and choosing to use partial shutdown in the cells, if the second time period is shorter than the third time period, and else choosing to use the default energy saving plan.
