Abstract. A continuously energy production is the most difficult and important feature to be guaranteed when designing a standalone power system for telecommunications. This paper focuses on a standalone power system for telecommunications already proposed in the literature, combining the most mature generators and technologies related to renewable energies and environment friendliness. It is important to know the operational problems, the best way to solve them and how to apply efficient maintenance. Reliability studies based on existent applications of renewable generators (some of them used in standalone power systems) help to know what to expect from their operational behaviour and to reduce time and costs in maintenance tasks. Notwithstanding their undoubted importance, they are not much recognised in literature, yet. The paper presents a brief review based on the few reliability reports about wind and photovoltaic systems available in the literature. Contributions and important aspects are discussed having in mind all the obstacles to achieve an uninterruptible power supply.

“…Numerous literature has discussed the application of a hybrid PV-wind system for off-grid BSs. Hashimoto et al [36] conducted a research study on a BS site in Yonaguni Island, Japan, where they proposed an optimal sizing of a hybrid PV-wind system and studied the possibility of service outages in three scenarios of battery capacity. The results showed that the system required a three-day backup battery in order to maintain zero hours of service outages.…”

Sustainable Power Supply Solutions for Off-Grid Base Stations

Abstract:The telecommunication sector plays a significant role in shaping the global economy and the way people share information and knowledge. At present, the telecommunication sector is liable for its energy consumption and the amount of emissions it emits in the environment. In the context of off-grid telecommunication applications, offgrid base stations (BSs) are commonly used due to their ability to provide radio coverage over a wide geographic area. However, in the past, the off-grid BSs usually relied on emission-intensive power supply solutions such as diesel generators. In this review paper, various types of solutions (including, in particular, the sustainable solutions) for powering BSs are discussed. The key aspects in designing an ideal power supply solution are reviewed, and these mainly include the pre-feasibility study and the thermal management of BSs, which comprise heating and cooling of the BS shelter/cabinets and BS electronic equipment and power supply components. The sizing and optimization approaches used to design the BSs' power supply systems as well as the operational and control strategies adopted to manage the power supply systems are also reviewed in this paper.
