As much of the system is in an outdoor environment such as huts or cabinets a tolerance of wide temperature variations is required. These means a good life even at high temperatures and good low temperature performance.
Coupled with high reliability/safety requirements the need for a low maintenance cost is always a key point. This means no sudden failures, Infrequent maintenance and a long and predictable lifetime
These standby batteries may be supported by a mains supply (continuous or intermittent) or may be recharged using small solar panels or wind generators.
