Triblade Presentation-1

In 2020, India saw a venture capital funding deal value of $10 billion, primarily in fintech, software as a service, and e-commerce, while successfully transitioning 1.1 billion users online. The telecom tower industry faces challenges with unreliable power supply, relying heavily on diesel generators, which contribute significantly to CO2 emissions. The potential for renewable energy solutions in powering telecom towers is substantial, with estimated savings of INR 31,824 Crores over five years by adopting alternatives like the Triblade VAWT.

Telephone density or teledensity is the number of
telephone connections for every hundred individuals living
within an area. It varies widely across the nations and also
between urban and rural areas within a country. Telephone
density has significant correlation with the per capita GDP
of the area. It is also used as an indicator of the purchasing
power of the middle class of the country or specific region.

The overall Teledensity of India is 87 with Rural Tele-density

Globally there are more than 3 million telecom towers and that figure is rising. It has become obvious that the potential for renewable
energy solutions is therefore huge. This also applies for energy storage as telecommunication applications require extremely high
availabilities. The total market for powering all these towers is estimated at far beyond $100 billion

● The TriBlade VAWT consists of a hollow
central shaft connected to three vertical
blades mounted on a gearbox
● Horizontal blades are mounted on each of
the tube for the self- starting capabilities
● The shaft gets turned by the turbine
blades and is in turn connected to the
alternator within the main housing.
● As the turbine is mounted at the top of
the tower, an Aluminium faraday's cage is
introduced.
● The VAWT integrated to the turbine is
mounted on a mounting platform in the
tower structure
● The generated output would be
monitored with the help of a network
analyser and a smart meter with remote
access.
