Company Summary
For many telecom towers and commercial operations located in off-grid or poor grid areas in the developing world, demand for their services is growing, and so is demand for reliable electricity. For these power systems diesel fuel can represent > 30% of expenses. We help these companies reduce diesel consumption by as much as 50-80% by installing software which creates load and generation forecasts to optimize the operation of the power system.
