solar power supplies for telecom applications


The most economic possibility to supply energy to BTS (Basic Telecommunication Stations) in remote areas is to use renewable energy systems or combined systems. Here we would like to introduce solar energy systems as a reliable and cost efficient solution.

Comparison of Solar and Diesel power supply for BTS:

The most disadvantages of Diesel Aggregates are:
  • Dependence of fuel (world-wide increase of oil prices; limited resources in future)
  • Transport to the sites (long distances and cost intensive transports)
  • Storage of the fuel at site (safety problems - explosions, vandalism, etc.)
  • No unintended operation is possible (high personal cost)
  • High maintenance cost (oil, filters, etc.)
  • Pollution (noise, heat and dirt)
The most advantages of Solar Systems are:
  • Independence of oil, gas and utility grid
  • Most economic operation (very low running costs)
  • Unintended operation (normally no operation personal is required)
  • Long lifetime (only the batteries must be changed every 5 – 8 years)
  • No pollution, no noise, no dirt
