Tesuco Telecommunication has commenced with the field trial of our Tesuco-Hygen variable speed generator. The unit has the ability to save up to 60% fuel when compared to conventional run generators sites. The system has the ability to operate on one or two or three phases (current will be drawn from a grid according to load demand up to the current carrying capacity of supply cables or of a supply transformer); it incorporates an electrical grid interface module and the capability to manage electrical energy flow from the electrical grid or a generator according to power demand conditions and it has two independent and galvanically isolated outputs, by way of example 5 kW at 24 VDC and 10 kW at 48 VDC, which are provided by regulated high frequency transformers and rectifiers. The power electronics can control up to four Generators in parallel for increased capacity or redundancy. |

Mcel client shortlisted for GSMA awards |
1 February 2010 |
Both of the submissions detailed below, made by
Tesuco Telecommunications on behalf of its
client Mozambique Cellular (Mcel), have been
shortlisted for the 2010 Global Mobile Awards,
held by the Global Mobile Association (GSMA).
Best use of mobile for social and economic
development
Mcel estou ligado/Mcel – I am connected (Joint
entry by Mcel, Moçambique Diesel-Elèctrica and
Tesuco Telecommunications, South Africa)
Mcel, supported by its technology partners,
Diesel-Elèctrica and Tesuco Telecommunications,
is proud to be a pioneer in bridging the digital
divide in the remotest locations across
Mozambique through the provision of
self-sustainable Internet connectivity.
In a country that ranks 175th out of 177 nations
in terms of economic development, almost half of
all children under the age of 17 have no access
to education, and approximately 60% of the
population lives further than 45km away from the
closest medical faculties.
Through its ‘I am connected’ programme, Mcel is
establishing and donating schools, clinics and
general community facilities to the most remote
villages in Mozambique. By utilising sustainable
green energy solutions, village dwellers who
previously had no access to basic
infrastructure, including electricity, are now
connected to the ‘world’.
Best green network
Eco Naturalmente/Naturally Thinking Green
(Mozambique Cellular SARL)
Mcel is a pioneer in thinking ‘green’ and an
African leader in the proactive roll out of
green power for mobile.
Mcel began exploring environmentally responsible
ways of conducting its business long before CO2
regulations were even considered in Africa.
Eco Naturalmente Naturally Thinking Green was
introduced in early 2007 with the objective of
reducing CO2 emissions from the boardroom to the
BTS. To date, by the introduction of 100% solar
hybrid-powered GSM sites, annual CO2 emissions
have been reduced by over 5 000t, with 7 000t
targeted by the end of 2010.
Replacing conventional diesel-powered sites has
not only resulted in Mcel being able to offer
connectivity in remote locations outside the
electricity grid, but also in OPEX savings of
US$405 000 per annum at current oil prices and a
CAPEX payback of around 12-months per site. |
