Abstract
Experience to date shows that solar photovoltaic power generators can provide cost-competitive power supplies for a growing number of telecommunication applications in isolated areas. The continuing downward trend in solar-module prices is important to users, but the young solar industry must be aware that a marked improvement in reliability and service life of solar modules is generally required.
