Renewable Power Solutions For Communications |
PowerOasis specialises in renewable power for communications base stations,
whether primary or secondary power. Through trials in the UK and Africa,
we have developed services that gather data and scope the potential of renewable
power solutions at individual sites. We can also use the data to recommend
and dimension the most viable renewable solution, combining power sources with
energy storage, for each site.
PowerOasis has also developed renewable energy Supervisory System Controllers that enable
the efficient integration and intelligent management of the power available at a site and
provide power intelligence to the base station and network operator.
As solar and wind power have progressed in recent years, and their cost steadily fallen,
they now can be considered as supplementary or primary power sources for cell sites in
locations with unreliable or expensive grid connections or for where a grid connection
is not possible.
The conventional way of providing these locations with electricity is from diesel-powered
generators. However, these are relatively expensive, requiring regular maintenance
and refills of expensive fossil fuel. Operators are increasingly turning to alternative
energy sources as a solution and PowerOasis can support them in making commercial, efficient
and environmental decisions as well as in the deployment of a solution.
