2017 was the busiest year, with 40 new systems, most of them 4G. Local 5G started with Free Mobile in February 2021; SFR followed in November 2021, Orange followed in November 2021. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 1996.

15 systems were switched on in the past 12 months. Approved additions not yet in service are pending on 3 existing masts, for example Free Mobile (4G and 5G) at La Saulire Mennet, Free Mobile (4G 2100 MHz) at Place du Forum and Free Mobile (5G 3.5 GHz) at Rue de l Aiguille du Fruit. 12 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

13 of the 19 masts are rooftop-mounted. The tallest support is 40 m at Courchevel 1850 (building). The median height of measured supports is 23 m.

By mast count, Courchevel is 4th of the 18 Savoie towns that have five or more. With 19 masts for 2,290 residents, or 83 per 10,000, it has more masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (25).

3.5 GHz 5G is declared by Orange on 6 of its 8 masts, Bouygues Telecom on 5 of its 8 masts, SFR on 5 of its 8 masts and Free Mobile on 4 of its 8 masts.

Supports leave a gap of about 2.4 km to the north-west of the centre.

6.6 km to the west, neighbouring Les Allues has less 5G (65%).

Of the 19 masts in the commune, only one mast carries all four networks, and Orange is the only carrier on 5 masts.
