A method for energy saving control in home base station environment, characterized by comprising: a source base station sending an energy saving control request to a target home base station, (201, 202) wherein the energy saving control request comprises information of the target base station, information of the source base station and a type of the energy saving control request, wherein the type comprises SLEEP or WAKE-UP, wherein the energy saving control request is use for indicating the target home base station to perform energy saving control processing according to the type of the energy saving control request; and after receiving the energy saving control request, the target home base station performing an energy saving control processing operation, and sending a result of the energy saving control processing to the source base station through an energy saving control response, wherein the energy saving control response comprises: the information of the target base station and the information of the source base station (204, 205); wherein the information of the target base station comprises: a global identifier and Tracking Area Identifier, TAI, information of the target base station; and the information of the source base station comprises: a global identifier and TAI information of the source base station; wherein the information of the target base station in the energy saving control request further comprises an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network, EUTRAN, Cell Global Identifier, ECGI, and/or Closed Subscriber Group Identity, CSG ID, information of one or multiple home base station cells to which the energy saving control processing operation is performed; correspondingly, the information of the target base station in the energy saving control response further comprises an ECGI and/or CSG ID information of one or multiple home base station cells having undergone successful energy saving control processing; wherein the energy saving control request is based on an S1 interface and transmitted to the target home base station transparently through an Mobility Management Entity, MME, of a core network; correspondingly, the energy saving control response is also based on the S1 interface and transmitted to the source base station transparently through the MME of the core network; or the energy saving control request is based on an S1 interface and transmitted to a gateway of the home base station transparently through an MME of a core network, and then transmitted to the target home base station transparently; correspondingly, the energy saving control response is further based on the S1 interface and transmitted to the MME of the core network transparently through the gateway of the home base station, and then transmitted to the source home base station transparently by the MME of the core network. a source base station sending an energy saving control request to a target home base station, (201, 202) wherein the energy saving control request comprises information of the target base station, information of the source base station and a type of the energy saving control request, wherein the type comprises SLEEP or WAKE-UP, wherein the energy saving control request is use for indicating the target home base station to perform energy saving control processing according to the type of the energy saving control request;
