Among the various options for supplying electricity to telecom towers, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, distributed generation (DG), and battery-based hybrid systems are the most common. Most of the time, these setups have battery energy storage systems to handle vital loads when other power options are unavailable.
Thus, a grid-based conventional power supply system for telecom towers usually depends on a DG and batteries to provide uninterrupted power during grid power outages (Amutha & Rajini, 2015; Gandhok & Manthri, 2021; Olabode et al., 2021).
As a result, the electricity requirement of around 80 to 90% of rural telecom towers is fulfilled with DG sets (GSMA & IFC, 2014a). Almost, all telecom towers are equipped with a DG set as a backup power supply option during outages of grid power supply.
