Nordic Tele Services (NTS) is deploying Flexenclosure’s hybrid power systems at its telecom sites in Myanmar.

The eSite x10 is the world’s first hybrid power system purpose-built for outdoor telecom sites and to outdoor telecom standards. The energy as a service (EaaS) business model is being increasingly adopted in the world’s developing nations.

The environmentally friendly eSite x10 units have already been manufactured in Sweden, shipped to Myanmar and deployed, with all sites now commissioned and operational. They are preconfigured to maximise the best harvesting of solar energy and Flexenclosure has also agreed an ongoing services contract with NTS.

The NTS sites are in remote rural areas with particularly difficult access, and required a fast rollout. The compact, transportable size of the eSite x10 makes the unit easier to deploy, and Flexenclosure’s experience of installing hybrid power systems at over 1,200 sites across Myanmar made the process smooth.

NTS will also be using eSite Tools’ set of remote management capabilities to monitor, control and accurately report back to their network operations centre on each site power system’s performance.

David King, CEO, Flexenclosure, said: “Energy as a Service, EaaS, is a fast-growing market, and one that demands the highest levels of performance and reliability from hybrid power systems. Our eSite x10 offers the lowest total cost of ownership in the most challenging operational environments and is the perfect ESCO solution.”
