Overview
Clear Blue partnered with Vanu to bring connectivity to Rwanda's unconnected and hard-to-reach communities.
The Challenge
In hard-to-reach areas such as Rwanda's rural regions, implementing connectivity is extremely challenging. Infrastructure installation costs are prohibitively high in remote locations. A low-cost infrastructure solution is critical to establishing a commercially viable business model for rural telecommunications.
Our Solution
Clear Blue's Smart Off-Grid used energy forecasting and remote management to reduce capital and operating expenses significantly. Clear Blue's Smart Off-Grid delivers a 40% lower cost than traditional off-grid power systems.
Results
- Clear Blue's Smart Off-Grid power provided the low-cost solution necessary to establish a commercially viable telecom business model in Rwanda.
- The deployment enabled reliable wireless managed power for telecom sites.
- The Rwanda installation demonstrates how Smart Off-Grid can help establish commercially scalable telecom services in difficult-to-access areas.
