Ericsson helps Celtel to meet its objectives of reducing costs and growing coverage in Uganda, with a hybrid energy solution for diesel and battery. As in other areas where power is un-reliable or non-existent, many radio base stations in Uganda run continuously on diesel generators.

That means 50 percent less diesel and 50 percent less fuel costs.
