Can wind energy be used to power mobile phone base stations?
Worldwide thousands of base stations provide relaying mobile phone signals. Every off-grid base station has a diesel generator up to 4 kW to provide electricity for the electronic equipment involved. The presentation will give attention to the requirements on using windenergy as an energy source for powering mobile phone base stations.
Why do off-grid telecommunication base stations need generators?
As the incessant demand for wireless communication grows, off-grid telecommunication base station sites continue to be introduced around the globe. In rural or remote areas, where power from the grid is unavailable or unreliable, these cell sites require generator sets to provide power security as prime power or backup standby power.
Is wind power a promising energy?
As a source of clean energy with high storage, no pollution, and using mature technology, many countries are seeking to utilize wind energy and consider wind power (WP) to be a promising energy . China, a major energy-consuming carbon emission country, is one of many countries that have installed wind turbines (WTs) (as shown in Fig. 1).
What is the difference between WP and offshore wind?
Compared with onshore WP, the offshore wind speed is 15%–40% higher, the annual operating hours can reach more than , and the wind stability is relatively good. Therefore, WTs can output high power in a stable manner and can generate 50%–70% more power .
Should China accelerate research on offshore wind power?
Unfortunately, current research on offshore WP in China still lags behind that in Europe (such as Denmark and Germany); thus, China must accelerate research on offshore wind resources, the marine environment and other factors to better develop the country's offshore WP.
How has China changed from a small WP country to an indispensable force?
China has transitioned from a small WP country to an indispensable force in WP development. The rapid development of WP in China has spawned a large number of local WP enterprises, which have seized much of the domestic market, forcing many foreign WP enterprises to withdraw from the Chinese market.
