California has a new law, after lots of wild fires, that all macro towers need backup power.
5G mini towers are not in scope.
New York is proposing a backup generator law as well, after major outages after a recent Tropical Storm/Hurricane.
It will be interesting is this catches on with other states.
Could change cost and deployment issues of 5G in the future.

Re: Backup Generators for Wireless Towers
Not sure what it's like in other states, but many towers around where I live in Texas have propane tanks sitting next to them.

Re: Backup Generators for Wireless Towers
Yep the Cell Towers, Water, Sewer System, and even the Grocery Store.
See the generator for my grocery store. Not sure if it's a law or just good business!!
Funny a see very few gas stations with back up power.
Note live in Texas near the cost.

Looks like an HEB. Love my HEB.
Grocery stores have a lot to lose, generators are a must.
