Pre-feasibility study of PV-solar / Wind Hybrid Energy System for GSM type mobile telephony base station in Central India

This paper proposes the most feasible configuration of a stand alone PV/Wind Hybrid Energy System with diesel generator as a backup for cellular mobile telephony base station site in isolated areas of Central India. It is expected that the newly developed and installed system will provide very good opportunities for mobile telephony base station in near future. The meteorological data of Solar Insolation, hourly wind speed, are taken for Bhopal, Central India and the pattern of load consumption of mobile base station are studied and suitably modeled for pre-feasibility study of the hybrid energy system. This system is more cost effective and environmental friendly over the conventional diesel generator. It should reduced approximate Seventy to Eighty percent fuel cost over conventional diesel generator and also reduced the emission of Carbon dioxide and other harmful gasses in environments.
