Off-grid cell towers to be powered by solar, wind

Vanuatu and Sri Lanka are replacing their diesel-powered generators that power off-grid cell towers with solar and wind-powered versions.
It’s all part of a push launched by GSMA in September to power more than 100,000 mobile base stations in developing countries with renewable energy by 2012. That could save 2.5 billion liters (660 million gallons) of diesel fuel each year, the association said.

Nice information, thanks for the post.
That is a gooooooodddddddddd article. I will share it to my friends.
Solar Energy is one of the best sources of clean and green electricity. I think that we should build more efficient solar thermal power plants and solar cells. frequently. |
solar energy is great but they take up a large amount of land area and not efficient too”.,
