Abstract : In Ghana, all the telecommunications network providers use electricity from the national grid to power their equipment. Consequently, the districts without state power source lack access to telecommunications network services. There are other geographical areas that are linked to the national grid yet experience frequent unstable or fluctuations in power supply leading to poor power to the telecommunications types of equipment. Solar energy as an innovative source of energy will aid in examining the environmental benefits and influences of solar photovoltaic technology across its full life cycle (from frame to grave), with energy benefits. This research seeks to assess the comparative advantage inherent in the use of solar renewable energy as an innovative source of power supply to telecommunications networks. Relative to the research objectives, the following results were obtained: The background of this steady is to achieve the concentrated power fact transmission (CPFT). From the results, with the concentrated power fact transmission device would be able to assist tracker with a booster or enhancement converter, which aids in the renovation and steadiness of the output power. Based on the findings, the following conclusions were drawn: The result of the study shows widely held of answers, which believes that, mounting renewable energy such as solar sources to drive telecommunication apparatus in the cell sites would enlarge network process in Ghana.

Keywords : Solar Panel, Telecommunication Network, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), Maximum Power Fact Follower (MPFF), Inverter and Booster Converter, Charge Controller and D.C Batteries.
