AXIATA GREEN TECHNOLOGY INITIATIVES INCLUDE:
• Deployment of Green and hybrid sites using solar, wind and biodiesel across OpCos networks
• Phasing out of old generation power guzzling BTSs, and implementation of capacity shut down
functions
• Reducing diesel consumption by cutting down the number of diesel generators (DGs) used at sites
• Adopting fuel efficient DGs and use of batteries as prime back up
• Use of power efficient air conditioners and reducing air conditioner usage, migrating to outdoor BTSs
with no air conditioning
• Using new generation batteries and new technology with higher temperature settings for battery
cooling, and discharge of batteries
• Long-term infrastructure sharing strategies
In 2012, based on the above green technology initiatives, a technical assessment was done using Total
Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis. TCO reduction of up to USD22 million was attained along with energy
and diesel savings of up to 215 MWh. Carbon footprint was also down by 142 ktCO
