Solar-powered Telecom Relay Station Saudi
Arabia
ETC power provides
- photovoltaic power plants
- combined photovoltaic- and wind generator plants
- hybrid photovoltaic- and wind generators plants combined with diesel aggregates as power back-up option
Against traditional systems, relying exclusively on diesel generators, systems based on renewable energies have crucial advantages:
- independent of oil and gas, operating costs independent of rising oil or gas prices
- no transport and storage of fuels, lower costs, lower risks of explosion or vandalism, lower costs for protection
- unattended operation, normally no operation personnell required
- maintenance-free, while diesel engines need frequent replacement of filters, lubricants etc.
- long life-expectancy: only the batteries must be changed every five years; solar panels have an average life expectancy of 20 years, while diesel generators in heavy duty must be replaced every 2-3 years
- no pollution, no noise, no dirt
ETC power provides full-service, assembly, installation and training for staff.
