In a nation sculpted by vast distances vulnerable to nature’s fury, reliable telecommunications are more than a convenience – they’re a lifeline.
When bushfires paint the sky crimson, floods engulf communities, or cyclones unleash their wrath, the ability to communicate is paramount. It’s the thread that connects emergency responders, families, and communities, a vital artery in the face of adversity.
Decon Corporation understands this fundamental truth, and the company has poured its expertise into a self-sufficient solution designed to fortify Australia’s telecommunications resilience: the Smart Power Cell.
Imagine an unfaltering telecommunications network, even when the main power grid fails. This is the promise delivered by the Smart Power Cell.
The transportable, off-grid power solution is a revolution in resilience.
It combines a suite of renewable energy technologies, including high-efficiency solar panels and optional wind turbine, with a long-lasting sodium metal chloride battery.
During daylight hours, the solar panels harness the sun’s energy, powering critical telecommunications infrastructure. As night falls, the sodium metal chloride battery seamlessly takes over, ensuring uninterrupted operation, charged throughout the day by the solar array.
But the Smart Power Cell goes beyond renewable sources. Recognising the unpredictable nature of disasters, it incorporates a backup diesel generator – a failsafe capable of supporting a site for an impressive four to six weeks without refuelling.
This self-sufficiency is vital in remote and disaster-stricken areas, where resupply may be delayed or impossible.
Crucially, the Smart Power Cell eliminates the need to send personnel into potentially hazardous and unpredictable scenarios for refuelling, prioritising the safety of human lives. It allows for the continued operation of mobile towers, data centres, and communication hubs, meaning vital information can still be sent, and received, for prolonged periods.
Decon Corporation’s commitment to reliability extends beyond deployment. The company proactively monitors every Smart Power Cell 24/7, ensuring optimal performance and rapid response to any potential issues
This constant vigilance guarantees that Australia’s telecommunications infrastructure remains protected, even in the most challenging conditions.
The Smart Power Cell is designed for rapid deployment, its modular nature allowing for quick installation in remote and disaster-stricken areas. This adaptability is crucial in restoring communication swiftly, minimising the impact of disruptions.
The system’s advanced controls stabilise power flow, protecting sensitive telecommunications equipment from damaging voltage fluctuations and surges, extending operational time during prolonged outages. This extended operational time provides a crucial window for emergency services, and for communities to get vital information.
Decon Corporation understands the unique needs of Australia, especially the remote communities who often bear the brunt of natural disasters.
The company’s Smart Power Cell is designed to provide the reliability needed to keep these communities connected, and to provide energy independence and reliability.
Decon Corporation is committed to ensuring that all Australians remain connected, regardless of the challenges they face. The Smart Power Cell is evidence of the company’s dedication to building resilient and dependable telecommunications infrastructure.
Decon Corporation is also committed to Australian manufacturing and the creation of Australian jobs and is proud to be manufacturing the Smart Power Cell locally with the Australian‑made certification, building sovereign capability.
