Abstract
We pose a novel cellular network planning problem, considering the use of renewable energy sources and a fundamentally new concept of energy balancing, and propose a novel algorithm to solve it. In terms of the network capital and operational expenditure we conclude that savings can be made by enriching cellular infrastructure with energy harvesting sources, in comparison to traditional deployment methods.
