TeleE-site Case Study
This E-site case study is based on information from our Renewable Energy site solution in
Africa.
A vast amount of data and performance statistics has been derived from the real-time intelligent
control and management system, Diriflex® which is part of the E-site®. Presented below are the
main conclusions from a six month measuring period on a trial site with an average total power
requirement of 1.4 kW.
95 % Diesel Reduction
As shown below, the diesel generator has run only 250 hours in six months, which is 6 % of the
total operating hours. Assuming that the average wind will remain at the same level for the next
six months, the total diesel consumption will be less than 600 liters per year. Compared to a
diesel driven site consuming 2 liters/hour, this would mean a yearly diesel saving of about 16
700 liters, adding up to at a 95% diesel reduction.

One yearly visit resulting in substantial
OPEX reduction
Diriflex® allows for remote site operation,
thus considerably reducing the need for site
visits. Together with the limited diesel genset
run hours, 250 hours during the 4 100 hour
measuring period, this means that the need
for fuelling and maintenance visits to site is
reduced to once annually(!). With off-grid
sites, like the one in this case study, being
very difficult and time-consuming to reach,
reducing the number of site visits has reduced
OPEX substantially

One yearly visit resulting in substantial OPEX
reduction. The average wind speed during the whole
period was 5.3 m/s at the wind turbine. This
corresponds to average wind speed of 3.8 m/s at 10
metres. These figures are derived from wind speed
measurements on site with adjustments for the actual
height of the wind turbine, which in this case is 60
metres. Note that the 5,5kW wind turbine is placed on
top of the telecom tower, which is a unique feature of
the E-site® compared to other renewable site
solutions.

The chart above shows that in the first three months wind
conditions were very good with an average wind speed of 7.4
m/s at the wind turbine. This corresponds to 5.3 m/s at 10
metres. During this period wind power catered for 86% of the
total consumption. Solar power complemented with 11 % of
the site’s energy need. An important fact is that the Diriflex®
never started the diesel generator during the first two montIn
the seasonal low wind period, November to January, the
average wind speed at the wind turbine was 3.3 m/s, which
corresponds to 2.3 m/s at 10 metres. Even with this low wind
speed the wind power contributed with 24% of the total power
consumption and solar power complemented with 27%.

Conclusions
During the six month measuring period the site has performed with excellent results. The diesel
generator did not start at all in the first two months and compared to a traditional diesel driven
site, diesel consumption has been reduced by staggering 95 %. Based on an integrated renewable
site solution where our technology know-how allows for the wind turbine to be placed at the top
of the tower or mast, the Diriflex control system has demonstrated its efficiency and superiority
in reducing site OPEX. Furthermore, by reducing the maintenance and fuel visits to once per
year, not only OPEX savings from the diesel reduction, but also the savings from avoiding
visiting sites in far away rural areas site will be considerable.
