Arqiva, the UK’s leading communications infrastructure and media services company, has completed a major transformation of the infrastructure that supports commercial digital radio across the UK, successfully migrating all 62 DAB multiplexes and more than 1,000 radio services onto its new Central Coding & Multiplexing System (CCMS). The new platform provides a more resilient and efficient foundation for digital radio, reducing operational risk while supporting future service development. The transformation has also delivered substantial sustainability benefits. Annual electricity consumption has fallen from approximately 1,324 MWh to 168 MWh - an 87% reduction - while estimated carbon emissions have reduced from around 173 tonnes of CO₂e to 22 tonnes.
