Reliable, Autonomous Power for Remote Connectivity
Autonomous Power Supply For TELECOM
Telecom networks demand uninterrupted power to keep communities, businesses, and emergency systems connected. Extending the grid or relying on diesel gensets in remote areas is expensive, logistically complex, and environmentally unsustainable.
MOBISMART’s hybrid solutions — combining solar + batteries + fuel cell — deliver the Trifecta of Autonomous Power. Our systems ensure 24/7 uptime for towers, repeaters, and backhaul links with far fewer site visits, lower fuel costs, and clean, silent operation. Propane and methanol fuel cells provide months of autonomy, while MOBICARE™ remote monitoring allows operators to track performance, fuel levels, and alarms remotely.

FAQs
Why are hybrid power systems ideal for telecom tower applications?
Telecom towers require 24/7/365 power availability—any outage affects network coverage and potentially emergency communications. Hybrid power systems deliver this reliability through the Solar + Fuel Cell + Battery trifecta. Solar provides primary charging during daylight, the fuel cell ensures continuous charging during cloudy periods and winter months, and substantial battery storage handles load fluctuations and provides bridging power. This approach achieves 99.9%+ uptime—the carrier-grade reliability telecom infrastructure demands—without the fuel logistics, noise, and emissions of diesel generators.
How do Mobismart hybrid systems handle remote rural tower sites?
Remote rural tower sites present unique challenges that Mobismart hybrid systems are specifically designed to address: fuel delivery logistics (hybrid systems include months of fuel capacity, reducing delivery frequency), grid extension costs (eliminated entirely with autonomous operation), harsh weather (systems operate to -40°C), and maintenance access (MOBICARE™ enables remote monitoring and troubleshooting). The result is lower operating costs, reduced site visits, and more reliable power than diesel generators or grid extension would provide.
What telecom equipment can Mobismart hybrid systems power?
Mobismart hybrid systems power all standard telecom equipment: cellular base stations and radios, 5G and LTE infrastructure, microwave backhaul equipment, fiber optic terminals, network routers and switches, battery backup systems, equipment cooling/HVAC, and tower lighting. Systems provide clean, regulated power with pure sine wave output protecting sensitive electronics. Multiple voltage outputs (48VDC telecom standard, 120/240VAC) accommodate diverse equipment requirements.
Are Mobismart systems approved by major telecom carriers?
Yes. Mobismart hybrid power systems are deployed by major telecom carriers across North America. Systems meet NEBS (Network Equipment Building System) standards for telecom environments. MOBICARE™ monitoring integrates with carrier network operations center requirements. Ongoing relationships with tier-1 operators ensure Mobismart products meet evolving telecom industry requirements and standards.
How quickly can Mobismart deploy emergency telecom power?
Mobismart MOBISUN HYBRID trailers deploy for emergency telecom restoration within hours. Trailers arrive on-site via tow vehicle, set up in 2-4 hours, and provide immediate power for temporary cell sites, COWs (Cell on Wheels), or tower restoration. The hybrid design ensures reliable operation even when emergency conditions limit solar production—critical during disaster response when communication infrastructure is most needed. Several telecom operators maintain Mobismart units specifically for emergency response.
What is the cost advantage of hybrid versus diesel for telecom?
Hybrid power systems deliver 70-90% lower operating costs versus diesel generators over a 10-year lifecycle for telecom applications. A rural tower diesel generator typically costs $8,000-15,000 annually in fuel, maintenance, and logistics. Mobismart hybrid systems cost $1,000-3,000 annually for fuel and maintenance. Additionally, hybrid systems qualify for clean energy incentives (30-50% of purchase price) unavailable to diesel. The total cost of ownership strongly favors hybrid for long-term telecom installations.
