Project overview

A telecommunications operator needed to reduce diesel fuel consumption at its base station sites across Nigeria. We designed and installed a solar hybrid power system combining solar PV panels, battery storage, and the existing diesel generator.

The hybrid system significantly reduced generator runtime, fuel consumption, and maintenance costs while improving power reliability.
