A Canadian renewable energy company provides reliable, cost-efficient renewable power to the telecom tower industry, significantly reducing or eliminating its reliance on costly, dirty diesel fuel.

The company has a state-of-the-art 10 kW wind and 2.25 kW solar tracking system designed for the global telecom tower industry.  Faced with ever-increasing operating costs and the push to expand connectivity into remote corners of the globe, and pressure to significantly reduce GHG emissions, mobile network operators (“MNOs”) are in need for an alternative to their reliance on costly, dirty diesel fuel. The traditional diesel-powered tower has become increasingly costly due largely to rising fuel costs and the logistics associated with fuel delivery, and generator maintenance and replacement to remote locations.  The company’s technology provides the solution.

These reliable and efficient systems are installed on existing tower assets thereby eliminating the need for additional infrastructure, permitting and land leases.  Their unique designed rail and carriage system and proprietary power electronics allow its systems to circumnavigate the tower seeking out the most efficient renewable resources.  With smart-tracking technology, these systems achieve power production that’s unmatched by traditional ground/fixed-mounted applications and, more importantly, the systems are protected when weather conditions become too extreme.

The innovation enables Telecoms to harness wind and solar energy using their own tower assets.
