ZTE achieved a significant milestone by successfully implementing a zero-carbon energy solution for a telecom site of Telefónica GermanyThis successful case provides valuable experience for future applications and challenges for the supply of rural areas

BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 29, 2024 /CNW/ — ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a global leading provider of information and communication technology solutions, has achieved a significant milestone by successfully implementing a zero-carbon energy solution that supplies a telecom site of Telefónica Germany. This groundbreaking project utilizes ZTE’s innovative green power solution that combines solar energy, methanol-powered hydrogen fuel cells, and intelligent energy storage.

The collaboration between ZTE and Telefónica Germany marks the first commercial deployment of such a green solution in Germany. For network operation, Telefónica Germany uses technology from one of its national network suppliers. Challenges arise when it comes to accessing grid power in remote locations, as it often involves lengthy construction periods and high costs. To overcome these obstacles, ZTE explored a new green and efficient solution for Telefónica Germany that meet the demands of a rapidly changing world. The final implementation took into account environmental friendliness, sustainability, and affordability, demonstrating superior performance in multiple areas.

The proposed solution from ZTE solves multiple challenges by combining solar power with methanol-powered hydrogen fuel cells. By relying primarily on solar energy and supplementing with hydrogen fuel cells during winter, the solution achieves 100% power availability, ensuring uninterrupted energy supply for the telecom site – and therefore smooth communication services for the residents in the remote area as well as eliminating worries about disruptions with their connectivity to the global network.

The green solution stands out for its minimal carbon footprint. The combination of solar energy and methanol-powered hydrogen fuel cells results in only water and a minimal amount of carbon dioxide as byproducts. This not only reduces carbon emissions but also aligns with the high standards for sustainable development set by the German government and enterprises. By adopting this ultimate green energy solution, Telefónica Germany demonstrates its commitment to environmental responsibility and sets an example for other companies in the telecommunications industry.

Furthermore, the solution, leverages methanol hydrogen production within the module, and thereby eliminates the risks associated with hydrogen storage and transportation, making it safer and more environment-friendly compared to traditional hydrogen fuel cells. Backed up with this reliable and secure energy supply, Telefónica Germany delivers excellent communication services without compromising safety or sustainability at the pilot site.

ZTE’s green solution can be extended to other European operators, contributing to the industry-wide goal of carbon neutrality. By sharing its expertise, ZTE is dedicated to driving the telecommunications industry towards a greener and more sustainable future.

ZTE has been committed to continuous innovations for carbon neutrality. The company will actively explore new and diverse application scenarios in collaboration with its partners, making substantial contributions to both society and the environment.

Lyntris Completes CDR for KSAT Hyperion Satellite Program

Tri-band RF system advances for KSAT’s next-generation HYPER relay network

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Lyntris Inc. (NYSE: LYNX), a defense technology company delivering sense-to-act connectivity solutions for the modern connected battlespace has completed Critical Design Review (CDR) for the tri-band antenna system in development for Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT)’s two-satellite Hyperion mission, marking a key milestone as the program advances toward hardware integration, qualification, and flight.

Hyperion is the pathfinder for HYPER, KSAT’s next-generation hybrid RF and optical relay network designed to extend global connectivity into orbit. The architecture will enable spacecraft to move mission data through relay satellites when direct ground-station access is unavailable, reducing latency and increasing access to time-sensitive information.

Delivering tri-band performance in a single antenna system is a demanding engineering problem. Each frequency band has to be tightly controlled — filtering out unwanted signals, isolating the bands from each other, and minimizing signal loss. But optimizing for one band can easily degrade performance in another. Meeting those requirements for all three simultaneously, inside a compact, space-qualified envelope, leaves little room for error.

That difficulty compounds when the design moves from RF engineering into flight hardware, and the completed system then has to be validated in test facilities capable of characterizing performance across all three bands at once, a capability few organizations maintain in-house.

Completion of CDR as planned demonstrates the technical maturity of the design and reflects the close engineering partnership between Lyntris and KSAT as both teams move toward flight hardware.

Lyntris brings RF engineering, manufacturing, system integration, and multi-band testing together under one roof. That combination — along with proprietary design and process IP — is what allows a design as demanding as the tri-band antenna to move from requirements to flight hardware.

“Hyperion is an important step toward a more connected and resilient space architecture,” said Madison Dye, Lyntris’ Vice President of C5ISR. “We’re proud to partner with KSAT and provide the advanced RF technology needed to make that architecture work. Completing CDR on schedule demonstrates our ability to move complex antenna systems from requirements to flight-ready hardware with speed and discipline.”
