Telecommunications systems, having a large number of electronic devices that need to be maintained uninterruptedly in the network, must be able to ensure that, despite a power outage, they can continue to function. This is where intelligent BESS systems come into play, which are not only capable of storing energy, but also managing it in the most beneficial way for our facilities. There are a number of factors that benefit the use of these systems in telecommunications infrastructure.
Equipment supply
Telecommunications equipment, such as switches, routers, repeaters, and antennas, depend on electrical power to operate. Without a reliable power source, these devices cannot function, affecting network availability and performance.. A BESS is capable of providing this pre-stored power to keep the grid stable in remote locations, where the power grid is characterized by its instability.
service continuity
An uninterrupted power supply is essential to guarantee the continuity of the telecommunications service. If a power outage occurs, voice, data and Internet services can be interrupted, affecting communication and business operations. For this reason, many telecommunications infrastructures decide to have BESS with backup systems together with a UPS to maintain operation in the event of a power outage. In this way, despite the fact that there is a power outage, the batteries together with the UPS will be able to solve the problem, provide the necessary energy and avoid loss of data or information.
The combination of a BESS system with a UPS would be ideal for this reset in the event of a power outage.
Loading capacity
Telecommunications infrastructures require a reliable electrical system with sufficient capacity to support the load of equipment and services. This implies having the adequate infrastructure to distribute electric power through multiple routes and avoid single points of failure. In addition, it is important to have additional charging capacity to support future growth in demand.
In this case, smart storage batteries such as Pixii Powershaper 2 are ideal, since being modular systems they have great scalability, allow capacity expansion easily and intuitively, adapting to the needs we have and not forcing us to have to remodel our facilities.
Applications in remote or off-grid locations
In remote or off-grid areas where access to reliable electrical infrastructure is limited, BESS offers a viable solution. It can be combined with renewable energy sources to create autonomous telecommunications systems that enable connectivity in rural or underserved regions. The creation of smart electrical microgrids by a BESS system facilitates these applications.
Easy integration of renewable energy systems
With the increasing adoption of renewable energy sources, such as solar, the BESS facilitates the integration of these intermittent energy sources into telecommunication infrastructures. Store excess energy generated under favorable conditions and releases it when renewable sources cannot meet demand, ensuring a constant power supply.
In addition, in installations where the connection to the network is stable, it is possible to carry out functions such as the peak shaving or load shift, moving consumption from peak hours with high prices to off-peak hours.
Regulation of electrical network parameters
Distortions caused in the power grid, whether it is the electrical grid itself or a microgrid, can cause serious and irrecoverable damage. in electronic elements of critical stations such as telecommunications centers. The addition of various energy sources, as well as the presence of many electronic elements in the systems, can cause these distortions of electrical parameters such as frequency and voltage.
The use of an intelligent BESS system that has regulation of electrical parameters, such as the Pixii PowerShaper 2.0, it can help us avoid all these damages that can cause essential communications failures
