Our month’s feature is about equipping telecom base stations to run on clean, renewable power systems. While air pollution is an environmental issue, what truly bothers telcos the most is the cost of powering and securing their networks.  In most cases, networks are being powered by diesel generators. Diesel fuel, however, is costly to deliver to remote sites and theft of diesel and equipment can cost operators millions of dollars. The solution is for operators to start deploying remote sites that either run on wind, solar, or even fuel cells. Confused with which renewable energy solution to use for your remote networks? Meet Danny Wong, Emerson Network Power's expert in hybrid power solutions. As the product director for Emerson’s telecom business, Danny is responsible for the management and support of outside plant (OSP) and hybrid power solutions for the entire Asia Pacific region. “The rapidly increasing costs of electricity and fuel, combined with the desire to reduce carbon dioxide emissions is pushing the development of renewable energy system suited for remote locations,” says Wong.

	As telecom carriers strive to bring the benefits of mobile coverage to as many people as possible, they need to find reliable, sustainable and economic sources of power far beyond the reach of power grids. More Despite financial barriers, telecom carriers can still have better control of their diesel consumption by implementing alternatives such as using deep charge batteries as the main power source. More As the need for connectivity continues to grow intensively, more telecommunications equipment such as base stations and other devices are installed in urban as well as remote locations.
