First launched in 2017, the project originally aimed to deliver basic mobile services to seven sites in remote barangays of Aurora Province.

This study presents an overview of sustainable and green cellular base stations (BSs), which account for most of the energy consumed in cellular networks. We review the architecture of the BS and the power consumption model, and then summarize the trends in green cellular network research over the past decade.
The green communication initiative primarily aims to improve the energy efficiency, reduce the OPEX, and eliminate the GHG emissions of BSs to guarantee their future evolution [ 2, 3 ]. Cellular network operators attempt to shift toward green practices using two main approaches.
The Public Telecommunications Policy Act of the Philippines, which governs the development and delivery of public telecommunications in the country, states in its policy declaration that “expansion of the telecommunications network shall give priority to improving and extending basic services to areas not yet served.”
