RISE has presented the work with industrial symbiosis in Boden in an appendix to the magazine Dagens Industri. Industrial symbiosis means that two different industries achieve economic and environmental benefits by organizing themselves around the exchange of resources, such as material flows or energy. RISE Research Institutes of Sweden has in partnership with others begun an interesting development of this in Boden.

This OCP edge node project set out to maximize the environmental responsibility and at the same time serve the needs for an enterprise 5G SA edge node deployment. The project should enable a maximum number of edge application users with a small footprint for the edge node with an easy to use requirement from the enterprise. The price point should also meet a low target cost for the complete node.
