4 FAQs about European 5g base station discharge

Does Europe need a 5G base station?

Europe’s score on the network pillar highlights the need to accelerate the deployment of 5G base stations (with 11 of the 15 European countries included in the 5GI scoring lower than 30 on this indicator). Europe fares better on coverage: 24 European countries reported over 90% 5G population coverage by the end of 2024.

What is the European 5G Observatory?

The European 5G Observatory tracks progress in 5G infrastructure deployment across the EU and other regions worldwide according to base stations deployment, edge nodes and infrastructure sharing agreements. Source: IDATE estimates and regulators' data. Reporting period: at December 2024. Source: IDATE estimates and regulators' data.

Is 5G sluggish in Europe?

The deployment and adoption of 5G SA in Europe remain sluggish, increasing slowly from a very low base and further widening the region’s gap with North America and Asia. Spain stands out as a clear leader in 5G SA deployment, reaching an 8% Speedtest® sample share compared with the EU average of just 1.3% as of Q2 2025.

How has 5G availability changed in the EU?

Recent advances in 5G Availability have been driven by low-band deployments and the use of DSS, raising the average proportion of time spent on 5G networks in the EU from 32.8% in Q2 2024 to 44.5% in Q2 2025. The pace of coverage growth, and the corresponding increase in 5G usage, has primarily reflected each country’s starting point.
