BACKGROUND
[0002] Rapidly growing telecom tower industry in India and globally requires continues power supply. According to a survey, on an average, 40 percent of the approximately 500,000 mobile towers in India face electrical grid outages in excess of 8 hours a day. Currently the telecom tower industry use diesel generators, batteries, and a variety of power management equipment to address the demand-supply gap. The resulting energy costs alone account for 25 percent of the total network operating costs affecting the profitability of the operators.
[0003] In current situation, over 2.5 billion litres of diesel is used to supply electricity to telecom tower industry. Diesel cost additional affects the telecom industry. Efficient method would be to use non-conventional source of energy for energy usage. Constant power may be generated and supplied to the telecom tower for continuous running. Additionally, such energy usage method would also reduce emission of CO2 accordingly and protect the environment.
[0004] Furthermore, effective approach would be to install non-conventional power generators in an economical unattractive method. One-time installation cost will be easily generated back by the telecom industry.
[0005] Hence, there is a need of a tripod tower assembly structure on telecom tower top for coupling a power generative source and therefore address the aforementioned issues.
