Overview: Located on a mountaintop in Alaska, an extreme cold application hybrid system was needed to power equipment that monitors worldwide compliance with the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. Northern Power Systems designed, manufactured, and tested a hybrid TelePower photovoltaic/diesel power system and installed it on a mountaintop site at Burnt Mountain in Alaska. The power system provides regulated DC power for the operation of a seismic array. The major power system components are located at a central master site. The master site power system uses a combination of a 5280-Watt photovoltaic array and dual 6.5 kW diesel/JP-8 fueled engine generator sets to charge a 3140 Amp-hour, valve regulated, lead-acid battery bank.
