PowerOasis innovative solutions assists telecoms base station owners reduce their power OPEX in both the current install base and on new sites. The company has recently seen significant growth in demand for solutions in networks located in areas which are not connected to reliable grids, such as areas of India, Africa and Asia Pacific. Such base stations have traditionally been significant users of diesel as a source of power as they require high operational performance. Despite the lack of a reliable power source, and by intelligently supplementing or replacing generator use with renewable energy, PowerOasis can deliver at least a 50% reduction in diesel use making both a significant financial and environmental saving.

MTI led a £1.15m funding round in early 2010, co-investing with the company’s existing angel shareholders.  David Ward sits on the board of the company.
