Instagrid has been recognised as a sustainability leader in the live events industry, taking home the Green Award at last month’s TPi Awards Ceremony. The win celebrates the company’s continued contribution to reducing the carbon footprint of productions across the UK and Europe.
Instagrid’s award‑winning submission spotlighted several high‑profile projects – including Shambala Festival, Pokémon GO Fest in Paris, and Lido Festival – where their portable, emission‑free power systems replaced traditional fuel‑powered generators.
One of the standout examples came from Shambala Festival, long known as a pioneer in sustainable event practices. By deploying just five Instagrid units across the build, live event operations, and de‑rig, the team eliminated the need for multiple small generators. The result? A saving of over 1,000 litres of fuel at a single event.
At a time when hundreds of major events and thousands of smaller ones take place across the UK each year, all requiring temporary power, the potential for industry‑wide carbon and fuel savings is immense. Instagrid’s technology demonstrates that cleaner, quieter and more efficient alternatives aren’t just possible – they’re ready to deploy today.
A huge congratulations goes to all the winners and shortlisted finalists at this year’s TPi Awards. Here’s to ensuring the show goes on – sustainably.
