Green Energy Integration

In the DES solution, excess energy generated by the electricity network is stored in the backup batteries of the mobile network. This provides flexibility to the entire energy network and reduces carbon dioxide emissions, contributing to the fight against climate change, DNA said.

Enhanced Network Resilience

“DNA Tower is committed to operating responsibly in a way that enables a better world for future generations. By implementing DES in our networks, we can ensure that we use green energy as well as possible. At the same time, we increase the interference tolerance of our network” said DNA Tower Finland.
