Huawei has been selected by Grameenphone to deploy Bangladesh’s first solar-powered base transceiver stations.
To provide mobile connectivity in rural areas Huawei will install its fourth-generation base stations, using a solar and diesel generator hybrid power solution. The base stations will primarily be powered by harnessing solar energy without having to be linked to an electricity grid. The diesel generator will be used as a backup.

Over 800,000 base stations will utilize alternative energy solutions such as wind or solar energy in 2009, according to ABI Research.
