Solar Powered Music Events

The future of modern society depends on our transition to the use of renewable energy sources. Each place on the Earth has its local source that power can be generated from. Here in southern Spain the most obvious and available is the Sun.

With the support of a local Solar Power installation company of Granada we will set up stages that use the energy from batteries charged with solar panels. By doing this we wish to demonstrate that it is possible to continue enjoying concerts and other cultural activities while using renewable energy sources.

Having said this, with the change of the energy source there also has to be a change in the usual environment of the concert experience. Usually without having to think of how much energy is being spent to power a stage, or even where the energy is coming from, we have grown accustomed to huge and very wasteful lighting and sound set ups. The stages and events we will be organizing will have to take into account the amount of power available to us with the batteries we have present and therefore use only the light and sound equipment necessary to have an enjoyable musical experience.

With these types of stages we hope to demonstrate that change is possible but only by also changing the perception of what a musical event is supposed to look like by taking into account the environmental impact all of our activities have.

Along with these concerts it will be possible to include educational activities about the environment and respect for the Earth.
