WWW.WISPA.ORG 21 www.bekabusinessmedia.com DAY 2 HCI Energy Supplies Off-grid Hybrid Power along Canada’s Infamous ‘Highway of Tears’ HCI Energy Inc., a provider of renewable, hybrid power and smart back-up power for telecom, broadband and public safety applications — announces the delivery of off-grid, hybrid power as part of Canada’s Connecting British Columbia Program. The company will deliver multiple hybrid power shelters this month 2023 to power telecom towers across Highway 16 in British Columbia, also known as the “Highway of Tears.” British Columbia’s “Highway of Tears” is a 720-kilometer corridor of Highway 16 between Prince George and Prince Rupert. The stretch of highway has been the location of more than 40 missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls since 1969. New off-grid cellular towers, powered by HCI Energy, will help ensure continuous coverage along all 720-kilometers of the corridor. According to B.C.’s Minister of Citizen Services, closing the cellular gaps along Highway 16 is a “critical milestone in helping prevent future tragedies along this route.” Stretches of Canada’s Highway of Tears are remote and rugged, making it difficult for telecom infrastructure to be put in place. One of the biggest hurdles is reliable power. Not only is grid power not available in some areas, but the terrain and severe weather make it difficult for alternative power sources to be easily implemented and maintained. HCI Energy’s Hybrid Power Shelters are designed to provide continuous, renewable, low-maintenance power that can be deployed rapidly in any location — even mountaintops — and keep telecom services going strong in any weather condition. “Along the Highway of Tears, HCI Energy’s Hybrid Power Shelters facilitate a vital service to people’s safety. This is exactly in keeping with our mission,” said HCI Energy President Kurt Armbruster. “Reliable power in remote locations is no longer a roadblock to communication lifelines for people who need them.” HCI Energy has a history of making telecom infrastructure possible in rugged, remote areas with positive impact. The company delivers hybrid, renewable power to the most isolated locations and has dozens of installations across the United States, Canada, and worldwide. m To learn more about the impact of HCI’s hybrid energy systems, visit booth 304.
