By combining fossil-free hydrogen, fuel cells, solar panels, and batteries, this innovative solution sets a new standard for ensuring connectivity during prolonged power outages. Today, mobile base stations primarily rely on electricity from the power grid, with batteries and diesel generators providing backup.
Meanwhile, communication base stations often configure battery energy storage as a backup power source to maintain the normal operation of communication equipment [3, 4]. Given the rapid proliferation of 5G base stations in recent years, the significance of communication energy storage has grown exponentially [5, 6].
A single base station energy storage system is configured with a set of 48 V/400 A-h energy storage batteries. The initial charge state of the batteries is assumed to obey a normal distribution, assuming that the base station has a uniform specification and its parameters are shown in Table 2. Table 2. Parameters of the energy storage system.
The analysis results demonstrate that the proposed model can effectively reduce the power consumption of base stations while mitigating the fluctuation of the power grid load.
By regulating the charging and discharging behavior of the virtual battery of the base station in such a way that the base station avoids the peak period of power consumption and staggered power preparation, it is able to optimize the regional demand for electricity.
