Great to be listed on the Mixmag festival line-ups 😎 We’re powering the main stage at WOMAD festival. Taking diesel out of events is what we’re here to do, and it’s fun to do that in such great company ⚡️ 🧚 @agreenerfuture_ @DaleVince @ecotricity @ClaireONeill_22

Last year we helped LIDO power their main stage with 100% green energy – no diesel, no nonsense – just sun and wind, stored in our big-ass Grid Faeries x Ecotricity battery. That’s how you do festivals in a climate emergency….⚡🧚🏻 accessaa.co.uk/lido-among-25…

Dale Vince: “When people go to a concert or a football match, they’re open to new experiences. It's a chance to show them what you’re doing - solar panels, car chargers, vegan food - and let them think about it.”  “You don’t have to preach. You just show people what’s possible."

Grid Faeries have been nominated for another award! TPI Awards 2026 have placed us in the ‘Favourite Power Supply Company’ category. A vote for us is a vote for the live music sector to be powered by the wind and sun. @agreenerfuture_ @ClaireONeill_22 @DaleVince @ecotricity

Co Founder Claire O’Neill said “Taking diesel out of events is what we’re about. Replacing dirty generators, so you hear only the sound of music.”

Super happy to power "The Showmans Show"... with our battery, packed with energy from the wind and the sun…:) And we won the Green Supplier Award. Huge big up to our fantastic technical team, and the fine folks at the Showmans Show for daring to do things differently 🧚🏻 ⚡

"What we're really here to do is to take the diesel out of festivals. Anything that's in the live sector is probably running on diesel – we are here to change that." - Dale Vince fooddigital.com/news/can-fes… @ClaireONeill_22 @DaleVince @ecotricity @agreenerfuture_

This summer our big ass batteries supplied the energy to the main stages at LIDO Festival and All Points East, as well as The Dragonfly on Arcadia at Glastonbury…. all powered with energy from the wind and sun. This is the new normal for live music 🧚 ⚡

Pleased to be a part of this. We’ve been working with @AEG_Presents over the summer to bring clean power to festivals like @allpointseastuk and @lidofestival , with our fabulous @gridfaeries initiative. Now we get to go further - powering some iconic venues from our wind and sun mills -  a proper green milestone for the world of live entertainment. accessaa.co.uk/aeg-europe-an…

The last few summers we've shown that festivals powered by diesel will be a thing of the past. 75% of festival power still comes from diesel generators - so there’s still a lot of work to do - but we’re leading by example and the appetite has exploded.

Festivals powered by batteries and grid are not only cleaner and better for our planet, but provide quicker response and make no noise or smell! No generators chugging away in the background, only the sound of music.

All Points East was a big success, with the 2nd stage powered by our famous big ass battery, charged by the wind and the sun. We’re kicking diesel out of live events, one festival at a time… @allpointseastuk @ClaireONeill_22 @agreenerfuture_ @ecotricity @DaleVince
