Voltalia French renewable energy company Voltalia is to install solar-battery power units at telecoms masts across Myanmar under a new agreement with the country's telecoms operator MNTI. Each of the 171 towers will eventually be fitted with solar panels, batteries and an energy management system, and be capable of supplying 2 kW of power each.
