Brand Establishment and Global Strategy

Mr. Joe Li, Delta Electronics Renewable Energy & UPS Senior Sales Manager indicated that the UPS Division is an independent business division of Delta Electronics. More than ten years ago, it started as an OEM/ODM maker of UPS products, and then developed solar inverter system products. In 2007, Delta established a branded product line of UPSs and began to market Delta brand UPS products. Since 2010, it has further expanded to Mission Critical Infrastructure Solutions (MCIS). The business model as a solution provider was then established.  Manager Li said that promoting its own brand UPS and positioning itself as a solution provider are parts of the integrated brand strategy of Delta Electronics Group.

After starting from Taiwan, the UPS brand has extended to the BRIC countries, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. In Taiwan where Delta Headquarters is located, after-sales service and technical support are more competitive compared to others in the industry. Large-volume products are sold via direct sales. As for small capacity UPS products, fewer requirements for after-sales service and technical support, allow sales through normal marketing channels.

Sales channels are diversified in India and China. For three-phase power, direct sales are carried out through main distribution points in the main provinces and cities of India and China since more after-sales service and technical support are required.  For the single-phase small type products, channel sales is utilized.

As for the two big areas of pan-Russia and the South American countries neighboring Brazil, Delta is looking for partners to conduct sales, marketing and more. Mr. Li stressed that for large tenders beyond local partner capabilities where substantial technical support is required, Delta will send a technical team to ensure customers receive the best products and services. For Europe, Africa and Middle East regions, the business model utilized is similar to the above.   Delta has stepped into the Southeast Asia market and will expand to Northeast Asia.



■ Delta UPS - Amplon RT is intelligent and highly efficient, 
   supplying safe and reliable power.

Manager Li pointed out that the logistics costs such as freight and duties have increased due to the weight of UPS, and Delta will consider localized production to solve the problem. Besides addressing logistical costs, this would also allow Delta to quickly expand the market and construct an integrated supply chain with logistics services for large capacity UPSs.

Comprehensive Integration

Mr. Li said that Delta Electronics has a long history with a complete supply chain throughout the world. Delta’s main marketing channel structure for UPS products is growing rapidly and it has a five-year technology and business plan for quickly catching up with the large global manufacturers. Mr. Li further pointed out that Delta is a company focusing on technology research and development with critical core technology. Delta’s different business departments work together through regular reporting and technical seminars, which allows horizontal integration for technical issues. For Delta’s vertical supply chain, such as spare parts, different units may use the same parts, which makes product design and production faster and more stable. The close cooperation of a worldwide sales and service network supports the overall integration of Delta’s global marketing.

   Innovative and energy saving.

Enhancement of Brand Value

 Mr. Li said that UPS products are marketed from two perspectives. One perspective is price advantage. Some UPS manufacturers sell only UPS hardware and do not provide total solutions, such as for industrial markets. Manufacturers want an advantage in price, so the prices of their products will be low. The other perspective is to provide total solutions that approach the minimum capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operating expenses (OPEX), so customers receive the most benefit. For high-capacity three-phase UPS products, Customers’ focus is on reliability and efficiency, including inverting efficiency, problem-solving efficiency and customer service efficiency. Customers wish to reduce maintenance downtime. With less product differentiation, the effective solution becomes performance programs that increase customer confidence. For single-phase products, there is even less product differentiation, and cooperation with local manufacturers is needed to meet the market demand for a ready supply of single-phase UPS products. There are three ways to cooperate with local firms: 1) local sales partners maintain appropriate inventory levels and a ready supply for customers, 2) a local Just In Time (JIT) Hub and close cooperation with Delta Electronics to achieve a target of minimum inventory levels and ready supply, and 3) manufacturing or assembly by local manufacturers to achieve optimal cost control, strengthen the company’s operating profit, and realize the advantages of a ready supply.

Mr. Li said that the range of applications for UPSs is very wide, and includes medicine, manufacturing, IT and the field applications. Any one type of UPS product can not satisfy all applications. Current industries like cloud computing are causing a product to shift to pan-IT industries, such as Data Center solutions. Some products are shifting towards industrial applications, such as energy solutions and others. Delta’s UPS product strategy is to enhance added value and sales value, so customers receive more benefits from using Delta UPS. Delta must also maintain the brand ideal to create value for the brand.

Competitive Advantage

Mr. Li pointed out that the design philosophy for UPS products is the same as for all of Delta’s other products. It is based on a minimum number of components, small size and weight, coupled with modular design for more convenient use. Another feature is less power consumption, which not only saves energy, but also emits less heat and lowers the cost of cooling. Mr. Li emphasized that compared to global enterprises with long histories, Taiwan’s enterprises are very competitive. A core advantage of Taiwan's enterprises lies in innovation, efficiency and flexibility. Taiwan's engineers are very flexible, and they can propose multiple solutions to increase quality. As long as enterprises make full use of talent, they can keep pace with enterprises that have a 100-year history.

Mr. Li notes that Delta’s UPS products have two main advantages. The first is high reliability even when hot-swapped, good quality, and good service. The other advantage is efficiency, not only power efficiency, but also for more efficient service that increases customer benefits and reduces waiting time. The reasons for such high requirements include customer competitiveness and value, as well as Delta’s mission and commitment.

Mr. Li also said that the total Delta’s UPS total solution has been available for more than a year. In 2010, a large data center project in Russia used Delta UPS products. Delta Electronics was the only supplier to provide delivery and installation on time for the project. The Russian party was very satisfied. Delta’s UPS products feature low power loss and high efficiency. A solar power inverter using the same key technology was evaluated as providing the highest system efficiency by European and Japanese manufacturers.

Delta’s Mission

Asked if it is worthwhile to pay the cost for increasing UPS efficiency by 1% Mr. Li said that from a macro point of view it is worthwhile. When Delta increases efficiency by 1% the total power savings around the world can be a huge amount. Delta Group's mission is “To provide innovative, clean and energy-efficient solutions for a better tomorrow”.

28.06.2011 - Delta delivers hybrid solution for Togocell
Telecom operators continuously expand their networks from urban to remote areas, where the mains grid is either unreliable or unavailable altogether. Deployment of base stations in such areas has traditionally relied on the use of diesel generator sets (gensets), which is expensive. Rising fuel costs, fuel thefts and the regular maintenance required by gensets in remote areas increase base station OPEX. Local competition has forced telecom operators to look for solutions that will reduce their OPEX.

Telecom operators are facing the following challenges:

  • Fossil-fuel dependency (global rise in oil prices and limited availability in the future)
  • Transport to remote sites (long distances and expensive transports)
  • Storage of fuel at sites (safety risks: explosion, vandalism, etc.)
  • Telecom sites need to be managed and controlled by on-site personnel (high costs)
  • High maintenance costs (oil, filters, etc.)
  • Limited useful time of diesel engines (needs to be replaced every two years)
  • Pollution (noise, heat and dirt)
  • Optimization of genset operation

Togocell’s biggest challenge was the viability of remotely located base stations in a telecom network. Is it worth keeping an existing base station running if it generates more costs than revenues? In a standard off-grid site configuration, the genset is running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Genset OPEX includes fuel thefts, long and difficult journeys to sites for refuel and maintenance, as well as maintenance supplies (filters, oil, etc.).
Based on the customer’s requirements, Delta proposed a solution based on the use of solar power, batteries and Delta’s hybrid power system. The objective was to optimize site operation by using renewable energy, and to limit genset operation to a maximum of 12 hours per day. A total of 25 existing sites were upgraded with following equipment provided by Delta:

  • 21 x 230 Wp multi crystalline solar panels D6P230A3A (DelSolar, Taiwan)
  • 1 x hybrid power system including 48 V / 9.6 kW rectifier system, solar chargers (MPPT), DG starter battery charger, AC and DC distribution (Delta, Europe)
  • 1 x 48 V battery string 1,000 Ah (Narrada, China)
  • 1 x 5 m x 7 m PV array support structure (Müpro, Switzerland)
  • 1 x junction box and PV cabling

Delta’s hybrid system consists of a 4.83 kWp PV array, battery backup for 12 hours at 80 percent depth of discharge for 1.7 kW DC average load, which represents 50 percent of the solar energy fraction and 50 percent of the genset energy fraction. The site includes a solar panel providing enough power to run the site and to recharge batteries. At night, the site is powered by the batteries. If the batteries reach a specified low charge level, the genset starts to power the site and to recharge the batteries. Delta’s hybrid solution provides a stable, modular and secure power supply that is affordable to purchase and maintain. The solution is designed for remotely located, off-grid base stations, and includes remote management capability tailored to the customer requirements. Delta commissioned the site and prepared it for optimization. Delta’s solution helped the customer cut base station OPEX by 60 percent. As a result, the customer decided to order additional equipment for 16 sites (with 9.66 kWp of solar power).

Delta’s hybrid solution:
Hybrid system with 4.83 kWp PV array, battery backup for 12 hours at 80 percent depth of discharge for 1.7 kW DC average load.

Performance:
Solar energy fraction: 45%
Genset energy fraction: 55%
Expected ROI: 5 years

System design
Delta’s outdoor power systems are designed to supply DC or AC power for different applications, such as cellular base stations. The robust cabinet equipped with a three-point locking system reduces the risk of unauthorized access, burglary or vandalism. It also protects the telecom and power equipment, as well as the batteries, against extreme weather conditions, thereby ensuring a long service life. Standard cabinets have IP54 (and optionally IP55) protection rating in industrial environments. The cabinet can be equipped with additional supporters for hardware, enabling a higher level of integration for space-critical applications. In addition, the battery (or user) compartment can be separated from the rest of the equipment.

Climate management
An integrated climate management system controls the temperature inside the cabinet, providing optimal operating conditions for equipment and battery. Different cooling/heating units (air conditioners, heat exchangers, fans and air filters, heaters) are available. The advanced climate controller can be used to provide optimal conditions for all equipment by eliminating problems caused by extreme temperatures, dirt and humidity, which are normally present in outdoor environments.

We at Delta understand the need to reduce to the amount of energy consumed by cooling systems. Therefore, we offer a new hybrid cooling solution in the most popular combination: air ventilation and active cooling (AV + AC). This concept uses air ventilation as the main cooling system in low and normal ambient temperatures. In high ambient temperatures, air ventilation is replaced or suppressed by active cooling (AC). This creates significant energy savings. For example, in a typical system with internal heat generation of 1.5 kW installed in a 1.8 meter outdoor cabinet in Frankfurt, Germany, a hybrid (AV + AC) cooling system reduced energy consumption by 70–80 percent when compared to a traditional system using active cooling only. The savings could be even higher in installations where higher internal temperatures (above 30 °C) are accepted. 
Delta OutD product series

Power systems
The power system located inside an outdoor cabinet consists of power conversion modules (rectifiers, invertors and UPS units) and distribution units (with configurable AC and DC elements). Delta’s OutD cabinets can be equipped with different types of rack-mounted indoor systems from the CellD Series. Delta’s new EnergE high-efficiency rectifiers are the best choice for such applications.

03.03.2011 - New Energy Efficient Rectifier launched!
Delta's new DPR 850B rectifier delivers a high efficiency of 95.2% and power density as high as 30.2 W / inch3, keeping Delta in the forefront of energy efficiency and power density in the <1.5kW power range for the telecom power market. Its platform and shelf solutions also increase energy efficiency 3–5% compared to the industry standard for today’s low power applications. On top of this, a 37–50% reduction in heat by the rectifiers requires lower installed cooling capacity leading to a total energy savings of 4.5–7.5% compared to the industry standard.

“Delta continuously enhances our energy saving solutions for all applications. Our newest EnergE rectifier DPR 850B is a milestone in energy efficient telecom power, that extends our EnergE product line and brings Delta into the unique position of being able to provide energy efficient power solutions over the whole rectifier range, from a few hundred watts to several kilowatts. This creates the possibility for one-stop shopping of energy efficient solutions for all applications that would simplify our clients’ business processes,” said Kelvin Huang, Head of Telecom Power Solutions Business Unit, Delta Electronics.

The DPR 850B rectifier platform is one of the Delta CellD series which feature high power for space critical applications. Deploying networks to provide broadband services such as 3G / LTE / Wimax / DSL requires small, energy efficient products. The DPR 850B platform offers valuable space savings which offer a perfect solution for operators to conduct very compact installations in public areas. The platform provides a unique 2.55 kW maximum power capacity and 1.7 kW power respectively, and includes redundancy, battery distribution, up to six load connections and a controller in 1U / 300mm deep ETSI cabinet installations. In outdoor enclosures for Delta’s outdoor power systems (OutD), its compact footprint creates additional space that allows operators to install more revenue generating equipment. The DPR 850B’s very low audible noise is an additional benefit for installation in urban areas.

EnergE Rectifier Modules Can Eliminate Thousands of Tons of CO2 and Save Carriers Millions of Dollars Annually

Combining this power solution with Delta’s renewable energy solutions (RenE) will further support the operator in lowering fuel refilling processes and operating expenses. “It revolutionizes the annual cost structure for installations using AC utility power. In a 3G / LTE network with 5,000 installations, the achievable annual savings may be up to 6.3 Million kWh or $1 million USD and the operator’s annual CO2 savings could be up to 1600 tons. In small power applications, such as wireless broadband (LTE) fixed line broadband (fiber to the home), transmission and radio applications, the total number of installations will sum up the OPEX and environmental benefits,” said Hans-Peter Glauser, Global Product Manager at Delta.

The new DPR 850B series emphasizes optimizing total cost of ownership for our clients. With features and advantages such as a smart controller, simplified maintenance processes, light weight, less raw materials and green manufacturing, it marks a milestone for smart green solutions from environmental aspects of product definition, design, manufacturing, transportation, installation, and operation. “We believe that this holistic view of environmental aspects is fully in line with the long term interest of our society’s evolution and there are no contradictions at all. It aims to secure a sustainable future for coming generations in line with our clients’ business perspectives,” said Peter Hofstetter, Head of R&D of Telecom Power Solutions Business Unit at Delta.

02.03.2011 - Indian Telcos Reduced Their Electricity Bill by 50% Using Delta’s RenE Solution
Today, the Indian telecom industry consumes more than 2 billion liters of diesel every year to maintain its mobile towers. Energy costs represent more than 60% of all network operating costs. Delta’s revolutionary hybrid site solution stands for reliability and cost efficiency. It includes features such as a fully integrated power solution, easy installation and maintenance, remote control and monitoring, and multi-energy data logging. The new site solution is designed to function reliably also in rural areas in India, where grid power (Electricity Board or EB power) is highly unreliable. In these areas, BTS sites use onsite diesel generators for backup or primary power. The power system needs to be reliable, cost-effective and easy to maintain. In addition to securing power supply in such areas, Delta’s new hybrid solution reduces the OPEX of telecom sites and helps cut the use of fuel-guzzling diesel generators in tower operations. For example, in India, most sites run on diesel generators for the first months of their operation due to the delay in the EB connections.

A typical hybrid installation consists of a rectifier system, a genset, a photovoltaic array and a wind turbine. With Delta’s standalone system or a combination of renewable and traditional energy sources, the CO2 emission rate falls rapidly, resulting in a minimal carbon footprint. All in all, RenE revolutionizes market standards. It brings energy efficiency to the system level with cutting-edge control and monitoring functionality, featuring the most efficient power conversion modules, cooling options and renewable energy sources in the market.

With the reduced power consumption of modern telecommunications equipment, solar electricity has become an economically and technically attractive alternative to conventional energy sources. Telecommunications lines often pass through remote, uninhabited areas where no infrastructure exists. Therefore, the power system of an unmanned site must be extremely reliable and rugged enough to withstand changing weather conditions with as little human intervention as possible. In case something does go wrong, the system must be able to send an alarm signal to the nearest manned station and to continue running using the solar power system until the arrival of maintenance personnel. Delta aims to revolutionize market standards by enabling significant direct and indirect energy savings while providing easy access to unmanned sites.

Under Delta’s SolutionE concept, RenE solutions feature a modular power supply concept that can use any combination of solar power, wind turbines, mains power, diesel generators and fuel cells.
