新德里消息:电信行业玩家对一项允许他们扩张的提案的实施持乐观态度移动连接通过使用广泛分布的电力输电塔在印度的偏远地区不可靠的电力供应、高昂的维护成本和难以获得土地，目前破坏了在该国偏远农村地区安装电信塔的商业案例。
政府的重点是通过加强电力基础设施来扩大家庭电气化，利用电力基础设施来加强移动连接的建议获得了支持。通用移动连接也是政府的一个主要支柱数字印度计划。
CERC于2018年1月成立了一个委员会，并决定成立一个委员会来研究该提案的技术和财务方面，包括与PGCIL与受益人分享收入有关的方面。
该公司首席技术官兰迪普•塞洪表示:“这肯定会有助于农村地区的互联互通，因为偏远地区的电信光纤，尤其是阿萨姆邦等东北部偏远村庄的电信光纤，会被洪水和山体滑坡冲毁。”Bharti Airtel．“我们已经在与PGCIL合作。我们有一些与他们合作的路线，但如果这个机会被解锁，它肯定会是一个巨大的飞跃行业他说。
印度手机和电子协会主席Pankaj Mohindroo也对该提议的可行性表示乐观。他说，这个想法的技术可行性可以由电信基础设施公司来解决。
“我们必须利用现有的基础设施，以节省和合理的资本成本。电力塔可以用来代替建造新的电信塔来实现连接。我们必须在相互协商的情况下创建架构，”Mohindroo补充道。
PGCIL在向CERC提交的请愿书中表示:“输电线安装在不同高度的塔上，可以解决电力导体和Wimax天线(用于电信)的双重用途。”
该委员会在2018年举行了两次会议，与利益相关者讨论该提案。电力混乱，在他们对该提议的评论中，引起了人们的关注。在回复PGCIL的请愿书时，MP电力管理有限公司(MPPMCL)提出，拟议中的传输资产利用不应导致电力供应中断。
德里discom疯牛病Rajdhani (BRPL)表示:“如果由于电信系统的实施而出现中断，在计算传输系统的可用性时应该排除这种情况。”
马哈拉施特拉邦配电有限公司(MSEDCL)表示，PGCIL应确保在安装和操作电信设备期间电力供应不间断和可靠，而CERC则必须确保在安装电话设备时传输系统可用。
该委员会在其报告中表示，该提议将有助于减少柴油的消耗，降低碳足迹。

New Delhi: Telecom industry<\/a> players are optimistic on the implementation of a proposal that would allow them to expand mobile connectivity<\/a> by using the vastly spread electricity transmission towers<\/a> in the far-flung areas of India.Unreliable power supply, high maintenance cost, and difficulty in land availability currently spoil the business case for installing telecom towers in the remotely located rural areas of the country.
With the government's focus on expanding household electrification by strengthening power infrastructure, the proposal to utilise power infrastructure to enhance mobile connectivity has gained traction. Universal mobile connectivity is also a major pillar of the government\u2019s Digital India<\/a> programme.
<\/div><\/div>Powergrid Corporation of India Ltd (PGCIL), had in 2017 approached the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission<\/a> (CERC) for utilising its towers for telecom antenna, power and telecom equipment, and drawing power from earth wire of towers.
CERC formed a committee in January 2018 and decided to constitute a committee to look into the technical and financial aspect of the proposal including aspects related to revenue sharing by PGCIL with beneficiaries.
\"This will surely help in rural connectivity because the telecom fibre in remote areas, especially in the far-flung villages of North Eastern states like Assam, gets washed out in floods and landslides,\" said Randeep Sekhon, chief technical officer, Bharti Airtel<\/a>. \"We are already working with PGCIL. We have some routes where we have worked with them but if this opportunity is unlocked it can certainly be a big leap for the industry<\/a>,\" he said.
Pankaj Mohindroo, chairman of India Cellular & Electronics Association is also upbeat about the viability of the proposal. The technical feasibility of the idea can be taken care of by the telecom infrastructure companies, he said.
\"We must use the existing infrastructure wherever it is there to save and rationalise the capital cost. Power towers can be used instead of erecting new telecom towers for connectivity. We have to create the architecture in consultation with each other,\" Mohindroo added.

\"We must use the existing infrastructure wherever it is there to save and rationalise the capital cost. Power towers can be used instead of erecting new telecom towers for connectivity. We have to create the architecture in consultation with each other,\" Mohindroo added.
<\/div><\/div>PGCIL has around 250,000 transmission line towers with a majority of them located in remote areas. These towers can be used to improve the IT infrastructure in rural area. Of these towers, about 150,000 can be suitably used for mounting telecom antennas.
\u201cThe power lines are installed on towers of varying height and can solve the dual purpose of carriage of power conductors and Wimax antennas (used for telecom),\u201d PGCIL said in its petition to CERC.
The committee held two meetings in 2018 to discuss the proposal with stakeholders. Power discoms, in their comments on the proposal, raised concerns. Replying to the PGCIL petition, MP Power Management Company Limited (MPPMCL), submitted that the proposed utilisation of the transmission assets should not result in any interruption in power supply.
Delhi discom BSES<\/a> Rajdhani (BRPL) stated: \"In case, there is outage due to the implementation of the telecommunication system, the same should be excluded while calculation of the availability of the transmission system.\"
Commenting on the proposal, Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Ltd (MSEDCL<\/a>) said that PGCIL should ensure uninterrupted and reliable power supply during installation and operation of telecom equipment and CERC must ensure availability of transmission system upon installation of telephone equipment.
The committee had said in its report that the proposal will help reduce the consumption of diesel and bring down carbon footprint.
