The Need to Build and Operate a Mobile Module for Ensuring Energy Autonomy From Sustainable Sources (maes)
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The mobile module for ensuring energy autonomy from sustainable sources (MAES) can solve the problem of power supply in remote areas, providing a flexible and sustainable solution, especially for military applications. Based on renewable sources, MAES ensures energy autonomy, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and minimizing environmental impact. By integrating solar panels, batteries, and smart energy management systems, MAES can provide electricity for a wide range of equipment and applications, from communications and surveillance and security systems to electric vehicles. Its portability and resilience make it ideal for field operations, and unlike generator sets, its silent operation provides thermal and acoustic masking conditions. The adoption of the MAES can enable the armed forces to operate more efficiently, more discreetly and in a more sustainable way.
