Innovex Energy proposal to Augment or Replace Diesel powered Base Stations

June 2009

Innovex Energy proposal for Ericsson


Responsible Green Solutions Within Reach.

HONEST. AFFORDABLE. RELIABLE.


Lumitech Imaging Innovex Energy Ltd.

Agenda

Problem Statement

Solar vs. Diesel

CA Strategy & Portfolio Council Impact Innovex Energy Ltd. Introduction

Recommendations



Innovex Energy Ltd. Introduction

Our Presence Local office in Kenya International resources in China and USA

Our Knowledge Expertise in Renewable Energy Expertise in IT, Telecoms and Project Management

Our Resources One Stop Shop for Renewable Energy Management across entire supply chain



The growing cost of

maintaining Diesel Powered

Base Stations has become

cost prohibitive

Problem Statement



Why Choose Solar- Wind

Cellular Base Station are a great beneficiary of a green solution

Huge Cost Savings!!

Maintenance Free

One Time Investment

High MTBF (mean time between failure)

Environmental Friendly



Solution Options

Generator + Solar

Generator + Solar + Turbine

Solar (need batteries) + Wind

Solar (need batteries) --- Reliability?

May be able to add products over time to scale to support maximum load



Cell Base Station Solar Diagram

*Illustrative pending site evaluation



Site Configuration (need verification)

RBS 2111 (DC) 3X2 configuration

Shelter 3X2 (2X1.5 ton)

Battery 48V 600AH , HBL make

Power Plant 48V 150A

PIU (15KVA)

DG 15KVA, 16Hrs daily running

EB supply not available at site

Power source for equipment through DG & Battery only

These are baseline assumptions which

require site visit and verification



Solar Only Diesel + Solar

Potential Solutions

DG running reduced from 16 hrs to 3hrs daily.

Rest 21 hrs powered by solar and Battery

Reduction of pollution by reducing DG running by 13hrs

Existing available space utilized to install solar panel at site

Solar panel of 2.4KWp (30 No. of 80Watt panel) installed.

Solar charge controller (MPPT type 80A)

Connection of charge controller to battery

Solar can be introduced over time to replace diesel but to realize benefits to Ericsson

immediately



Innovex Energy product quality and reliability

All products are CE, TUV, IS09001, Solar light CE, Solar Panel CE, and ROHS and high-tech enterprises certificates.

They are qualified by the CE ultimate European body for regulatory and certification, which is also

approved by Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS)

These products are used in Europe, United States, Asia, the Middle East, Russia, Africa etc. countries.

Support

Est. One month per 5 sites w/ parts onsite

Project Team: Innovex Energy Director Project Manager Design Engineer Installation Crew

Innovex Energy can have engineers on site in 24 hours upon approval



General Scope and Time Plan



Resource Profiles

Michael Schneider (USA) – Director

– MS Industrial Engineering, MBA

Nick Svenson – Design Engineer (Solar planning, installation)

– BA Electrical Engineering

James Gatihi - Project Manager (14 years of Product Engineering)

– BA Computer Science, MBA

TBD – Engineering and Install Crew

The company maintains a stable workforce with backgrounds in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineer/Project Manager, Production Manager. Specialized in manage engineering projects using multi-discipline engineering and procurement individually or with client team’s construction partners if needed.



Next Steps

Design a cell station diesel conversion program

Kickoff a small pilot to convert a few stations to standardize process, confirm feasibility, gauge workmanship and project execution.

Schedule a Site Assessment to finalize on all solution components and sizing.

Complete a geographical-Environmental analysis

Develop a roadmap to cover cell towers Ericsson wishes to convert.

Regional considerations

Locations: North Rift, NE Province, Upper Eastern, Upper Coast.

Average annual max. sun exposure 7 hours



Assumptions

Site can accommodate both solar and wind technology

Cell station requires the need for remote monitoring



Base Station Requirements

Maximum load is 2,300 watt

2,000L of diesel fuel used per month, replaced bi-monthly at a cost of KES 80 Per Liter

Area available 15Mx18M or 13Mx13M

Equipment can’t be below transmission equipment

2 Generators per site at a cost of 2M for off grid sites



General Scope Detail 1 of 2

Equipment Supply and Delivery
