EBOSS® Delivers Reliable Power for Emergency Response in Remote Montana
Industry
Emergency Response | Critical Communications
Challenge
When emergency response systems are activated, communications infrastructure becomes the backbone of coordination. This remote site required continuous uptime in extreme, unpredictable conditions; where any disruption could impact response timelines, field coordination, and public safety. Limited site access, severe weather, and reliance on fuel logistics made traditional generator-based systems a significant operational risk.
Results
EBOSS® delivered resilient, autonomous power, dramatically reducing generator runtime and fuel dependency while maintaining continuous uptime. The system enabled reliable communications in extreme conditions, lowering operational risk and ensuring consistent performance year-round.
Key Product
EBOSS® 25-25 Hybrid System
In a remote environment like this, every fuel run and maintenance trip adds risk and cost. With EBOSS®, we’ve reduced our monthly generator costs from around $5,000 to $600 --and eliminated a lot of that uncertainty.

About the Customer
A Tier 1 U.S. telecommunications provider operating mission-critical communications infrastructure across remote and environmentally demanding regions. These sites require continuous uptime despite logistical constraints, extreme weather, and limited access for maintenance and fuel supply. Due to the sensitive nature of operations, the customer has requested to remain anonymous.
The Challenge
This remote Southern Montana site required uninterrupted, 24/7 power in an environment defined by extreme cold, isolation, and operational constraints.
Temperatures ranged from −30°C to +40°C, while the site’s remote location limited fuel resupply and routine maintenance access. High winds, dust, and environmental exposure further increased system risk.
Traditional generator-based systems created ongoing operational challenges, including fuel dependency, frequent maintenance cycles, and increased vulnerability during severe weather events.
The Solution
ANA deployed the EBOSS® 25-25 hybrid energy system, integrating solar PV, advanced controls, and LTO battery storage to deliver a resilient, low-dependency power solution.
The system prioritizes battery-first energy operation, using stored energy before engaging generation. Intelligent system controls dynamically balance load and generation, optimizing performance based on real-time demand.
Integrated telemetry provides continuous visibility into system performance, enabling remote monitoring and eliminating the need for constant on-site oversight.
This approach delivers consistent, autonomous power while significantly reducing logistical and operational risk.
The Results
Over one year of continuous operation, EBOSS® delivered measurable improvements in performance, cost efficiency, and operational reliability:
- 7,334 hours of generator runtime avoided
- 918 generator run hours vs. 8,252-hour baseline (~89% reduction)
- 4,720 gallons of fuel saved
- 1,469 gallons total fuel consumed (vs. 6,189 baseline)
- EBOSS®: 32,989 lbs.
- Standard generator: 138,943 lbs.105,954 lbs. of CO₂ emissions reduced
- Peak load: 4.2 kW | Average load: 1.9 kW
Customer-reported cost savings:
- Generator operating costs reduced from ~$5,000/month to ~$600/month
- $4,835/month net savings
- $58,020 annually
A New Standard for Resilient Power
For emergency response teams, uptime is not optional, and neither is visibility.
With EBOSS®, performance is measured, validated, and continuously optimized.
