Ooredoo, Qatar’s leading telecommunications operator and ICT provider, has introduced its pioneering “Clean Energy – Super Hybrid” program.
This state-of-the-art program is designed to revolutionize energy consumption at Mobile outdoor sites, by diversifying a mix of eco-friendly energy sources, such as solar power and wind energy.
This program was tested extensively through initial numerous Proof-of-Concepts in 2023 and 2024 and will predominantly utilize solar power during daylight hours while seamlessly switching among other energy sources as needed. This strategy will gradually reduce carbon dioxide emissions and lower the carbon footprint of mobile sites in Qatar.
According to the statement, “Having been successfully piloted at various mobile locations, the “Clean Energy – Super Hybrid” system is proven highly effective and adaptable to Qatar’s unique environmental conditions. Ooredoo plans to implement this green initiative across all its mobile sites by 2026, aiming to save approximately 140 tons of CO2 and the equivalent of planting 21,000 trees at every site over 25 years. Beyond its environmental benefits, the initiative also stands to substantially reduce operational costs linked to fuel-reliant towers.”
These developments showcase Ooredoo’s commitment to the highest environmental, social, and governance standards and to playing a positive and leading role in shaping the future.
Last month, Ooredoo Qatar extended its long-term partnership with Netcracker, utilizing Managed Services for Ooredoo’s Revenue Management and CRM solutions to support B2C and B2B customers across a wide range of telecom and other services, including ICT, IoT, and Cloud.
This engagement will also expand to other industries including Fintech and Entertainment as Ooredoo Qatar continues its forward-looking initiatives and innovative digital offerings to maintain its position as a technology leader in Qatar.
