AGL Info Tech Interview: Alternative Energy Saves Money at Rural Cell Towers

Alternative Energy Saves Money, Reduces CO2 at Rural Cell Towers
HCI Energy featured in AGL Information & Technology

As telecom providers expand into rural and remote areas, powering new infrastructure is one of the most pressing,  and expensive,  challenges they face. A recent article by AGL Information & Technology explores how hybrid power is helping close this gap, featuring insights and data from HCI Energy’s latest customer analyses.

From cutting CO₂ emissions by more than 90% to saving over $650,000 in OpEx over 10 years, the article highlights how HCI’s Hybrid Power Shelters are helping operators reduce costs while expanding coverage into hard-to-reach places.

The article also spotlights opportunities beyond tower sites,  including powering fiber booster stations and broadband edge nodes,  where smaller, efficient energy systems can make a big impact.

At the core of it all: smart load management, battery-first design, and modular scalability that reduces the need for ongoing fuel delivery and maintenance.
