Eco Factor: Mobile base station powered by renewable energy.
Turkish mobile network operator Avea is using the advantages of both solar and wind energy to power a base station, which they claim is the first of its kind in the country. To ensure continuous connectivity, the base station relies on a hybrid approach, making use of both solar and wind energy systems. Since both sun and wind resources have opposite cycles and intensities during the day, the system makes sure that the base station never runs out of power.
