Off-Grid Power for Remote Telecom Sites

Remote telecom sites — microwave towers, satellite ground stations, LTE base stations — in areas without grid power require reliable solar energy systems engineered for telecommunications loads. CLATA designs and supplies complete off-grid power infrastructure sized for your equipment load, location, and required autonomy period.

Load analysis: RF equipment, IDU/ODU, networking, monitoring systems
Solar array sizing: peak sun hours per latitude, seasonal variation, panel tilt angle
Battery autonomy: 48–96 hour backup at full load in worst-case (rainy season)
Charge controller: MPPT for maximum energy harvest efficiency
48V DC system: direct feed for telecom equipment (rectifiers, -48V DC distribution)
Remote power monitoring: voltage, SOC, alarms via SNMP/4G telemetry
Example System — 500W Telecom Site
Equipment Load: 450W average
Peak Load: 600W
Location: Sub-Saharan Africa
Peak Sun Hours: 6.0 h/day (annual avg)

Solar Array: 4x 275W panels = 1,100 Wp
Charge Controller: MPPT 60A, 48V
Battery Bank: 48V / 400 Ah LiFePO4
Autonomy: 72 hours @ 450W load
Inverter/Rectifier: 48V DC + 230V AC backup
Monitoring: 4G SOC/alarm telemetry
Battery Technology: CLATA recommends LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) for telecom applications — superior cycle life (3,000+ cycles vs. 500 for lead-acid), no maintenance, 80% DoD usable capacity, and operating temperature range -20°C to +60°C.
