Five Main Objectives
In an official release, RSG said the completion of the towers coincides with the opening of The St. Regis Red Sea Resort, featuring Nujuma, a Ritz Carlton Reserve, also located on the island.
The project has five primary objectives: providing an ideal 5G service, enhancing the island's visual appeal, reducing emissions through 100 percent clean energy usage, preserving biodiversity, and enabling tower sharing among all licensed telecom operators in KSA.
Net Zero Energy 5G Network
The towers operate on the world's first net-zero energy 5G network, recently launched by RSG and Zain KSA, claimed to be the first of its kind globally. Beyond being 100 percent solar-powered, these towers are designed to allow air circulation, reducing cooling costs and minimising maintenance needs.
