They tried to bring sustainable development byreplacing older technologies and increasing the use of both renewable energy andtelecommunications. Ericsson is an example of a company offering solar powered solutions intelecommunications. The use of solar power reduces CO2 emissions compared to the traditionalgrid-powered alternative. In some parts of the world where electricity is expensive, unreliable ornot available at all, the benefits of telecommunication cannot reach them but with solar powersuch places can enjoy telecommunications.

(Thounthong and Sikkabut et al., 2010) in their paper examines how apower plant can be powered by the combination of the fuel cell, solar cell and supercapacitor.The solar cell acts as the main power source; the fuel cell provides power to support the solar

    cell. The supercapacitor functions as an auxiliary source for storing energy for later use.

    &urt%er *ork on the hybrid approach was done by (Zhang and Wang et al., 2012). Here aphotovoltaic system is used to charge a supercapacitor and its charging efficiency, storageperformance and efficiency examined. When compared to the battery, the supercapacitors cango through a lot of charge and discharge cycles without degrading.
