4 Frequently Asked Questions about “Africa installs wind and solar hybrid communication base stations”

What is the current state of hybrid power at cell sites in Africa?

TowerXchange: Tell us about the current state of hybrid power at cell sites in Africa. Around 10% of African cell sites use hybrid energy, and most of those have been fitted in the last two years. Diesel generators run 24/7 on many sites and that leads to inefficiency in terms of maintenance, site visits and generator renewals.

How common is solar power in West Africa?

Solar isn't very common in West Africa, given the cost, and size of power required for a 2.5kW base station. Of their 3,500 cell sites, Etisalat in Nigeria have 460 hybrid sites, all of which are battery hybrids. Some of those sites are totally off-grid, some have 4-6 hours of non-continuous grid power a day.

How many battery hybrid sites are there in Nigeria?

Of their 3,500 cell sites, Etisalat in Nigeria have 460 hybrid sites, all of which are battery hybrids. Some of those sites are totally off-grid, some have 4-6 hours of non-continuous grid power a day. The battery hybrids are realising 50% savings. Wind is experimental at this stage.

What are the most popular battery hybrids in Africa?

CDC battery hybrid are the most popular hybrids. I'd estimate that out of all the hybrid and renewable powered cell sites in Africa, probably 60% have got as far as investing in CDC, 30% have added renewables to become a full hybrid, and maybe 10% are pure solar.
