Abstract
There is provided a radio access node (40) for use in a communication network (32), the radio access node (40) being associated with a local energy storage system (122) that is part of a distributed energy storage network, the radio access node (40) being adapted to monitor the operation of a power distribution network (118); in the event of a fault in the power distribution network (118), control the local energy storage system (122) to supply power to the power distribution network (118). A radio access node (40) for use in a communication network (32) is provided. The node (40) is able to locate a fault on a power distribution network (118) and to generate a map of at least a part of said power distribution network (118), indicating the location of the fault.
