Himfr.com Reports Gsma Research Shows That: Mobile Off-grid Charging Solution Will Bring About 2.3 B

GSMA Association today released the latest report "Charging Choices" shows that mobile

operators in emerging markets for off-grid charging solutions (such as solar phone or external solar charger) there is still a 2.3 billion * market space. According to the extensive investigation, GSMA's mobile network green energy (GPM) program, which is commissioned by the survey party, is expected to have 485 million mobile users currently can not access to power grids, which greatly limits the use of mobile networks an opportunity. The report also listed a series of charging the current program on the market, if the can get a strong promotion, these programs not only improve the service more widely available, but also the ARPU increase 10% to 14%.

GSMA's GPM project manager David Taverner said: "We are very pleased to operators who have not access to grid for the region provide people with mobile phone charging solution that will not only improve people's quality of life and improve their access to information means, but also To promote economic growth leads to an important opportunity for a very rare. We are in the calculation of off-grid charging solutions, the market size of the data used are conservative, in fact, mobile operators obtain actual profit than we now estimate that 23 100 million U.S. dollars a lot more. GSMA think it will be the next few years, an important part of industry growth, but this was the initial market research has only just begun. "

Windsor Holden, principal analyst at Juniper Research said: "The mobile networks in emerging markets, the deployment of remote areas is becoming increasingly frequent in these areas, access to network users is very limited and unstable, in many cases, even still No access network. As has been learned, like Juniper Research, mobile application will largely depend on whether users can charge their cell phones through an alternative method to complete, it is worth mentioning that the use of solar charger can become a reliable way to make these markets access to mobile services is an important way. "

Digicel vice president of global distribution Tom Bryant said: "I have seen all the relevant mobile alternative energy solutions in developing countries, and the inevitability of the rise of the report, to be the number of GSMA's" Charging Choices "the most comprehensive."

Intivation CEO Paul Naastepad said: "The region does not provide people with access to grid charging solution for mobile phones is the introduction of mobile services in emerging markets, one of the biggest challenges. We have invested many years this area of energy, and poised to be hair, waiting to attack. Now is the time to do anything for this idea in order to make it their full potential, that is, the number of emerging markets, the economic benefit of millions of mobile users and ubiquitous energy. "

The study also found that off-grid solutions, there is a big margins. While mobile operators surveyed have been or are in the process developing off-grid charging scheme, but it can recognize all the alternatives and the associated social and economic benefits are few. However, the leading provider Digicel and Safaricom have proved to consumers, the environment and how these three mobile operators can charge from the off-grid solutions for a profit. "Charging Choices" is also an alternative charging scheme carried out a preliminary exploration and analysis of the current type of solution on the market.

GPM as part of the plan, from June 2009 to August, Development Fund has also launched a three-month investigation. These include a wide range of files survey aimed to ascertain the emerging suppliers, their products, and other industry participants, and in Africa, Asia and Latin America more than 50 countries, mobile operators and suppliers of the interviews and surveys.

In September 2008, GSMA Development Fund launched its GPM plan, aimed at mobile services will be expanded to cover the outside power grid, and put forward two main objectives: the adoption of renewable energy technologies and energy efficient base stations for mobile operators to promote an orderly reduction in operators of diesel consumption; for the grid-area cell phone is not charging to remove obstacles. Because of speeding up the solution to the problem of climate change has an exemplary role, the program recently received the Clinton Global Initiative (Clinton Global Initiative) approved the project and has contained in its 2004-2008 to commemorate the publication "Action Speaks Louder than Words" in.
