Cell tower-mounted wind turbine could address power issues

This solution provides a low rpm wind turbine technology that is designed to be mounted on existing telecom tower infrastructures to provide clean energy and reduce the dependency of towers on diesel generators.

There is a critical need for alternative sources of power in the telecom industry. This sector currently relies mainly on diesel generators to power Telecom towers. To address this challenge, Solarwind Company provides an innovative wind turbine technology which can be installed on any Telekom tower and powers the antennas, which provides the digital signals (3G/4G/5G), used in our daily lives. This solution allows to reduce diesel consumption and help to decrease the carbon footprint of the Telekom industry which counts millions of Telecom towers worldwide.

Cellphone towers are quite energy intensive as they use power non-stop without any interruption. Air conditioning of the equipment housed in the nearby hubs also takes up substantial amounts of energy. Thus any change in the power generation method of cellphone towers would make tremendous impact in terms of resource savings and reduction in carbon emissions.
