NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
http://www.reportlinker.com/p01087458/Off-Grid-Power-for-Mobile-Base-Stations---Renewable-and-Alternative-Energy-Sources-for-Remote-Mobile-Telecommunications-Global-Market-Analysis-and-Forecasts.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=Clean_Vehicle
Demand for high quality, high reliability off-grid power is increasing yearly. In the coming years, a significant fraction of this demand will be met by some form of hybrid system that includes renewable or alternative energy sources. Of particular interest in this regard is growing demand for reliable, non-diesel-based energy sources from off-grid base transceiver stations for mobile communications networks.
Diesel generators, a solution that presents a number of economic, logistical, and environmental challenges, remain by far the most common energy source for such remote base stations. This market is small when compared with grid-tied base stations. But the level of market pain is such that the so-called "green base station," which is essentially a combination of renewable, battery, and fuel cell technologies, is starting to see real market traction. Pike Research forecasts that revenue for off-grid base station power will grow from $1.6 billion in 2012 to more than $10.5 billion in 2020.
This Pike Research report examines the market for off-grid power for mobile base stations, focusing on renewable and alternative energy sources. The report includes a detailed analysis of the technology readiness of such systems, as well as an overview of the most likely technology combinations, including renewable generation with batteries and fuel cells, renewable generation with backup batteries, and standalone fuel cells. Market forecasts are provided for revenue, number of deployments, and capacity in megawatts, under base and optimistic scenarios, through 2020.
Key Questions Addressed:
• What are the drivers for adoption of renewable and alternative energy to power off-grid mobile base stations?
• Which technologies and systems are ready for commercial scale and which are still in the R&D stage?
