The second afternoon of the TowerXchange Meetup Africa & Middle East turned its attention to key considerations and solutions when managing cell site power. From tackling the low hanging fruit on existing infrastructure, to the widescale deployment of new technologies and the potential and limitations of the ESCO model.
