Disney & Netflix Join Forces On New Clean Power Initiative
The Clean Mobile Power Initiative aims to identify and deliver cost-competitive, zero-emissions mobile power at scale for the entertainment industry, including developing alternatives to diesel generators, which currently account for roughly 700,000 tons of CO2e emissions per year globally from the entertainment sector. The initiative will bring together representatives from leading production studios with equipment suppliers and cleantech manufacturers.
“After decades of relying on diesel generators, transitioning to clean mobile power alternatives is a smart business move for film and television productions. They’re quieter, healthier, and often already cheaper over their lifetime, but they’re yet to be available in all the forms and locations our industry needs.
“With less than a decade to decrease global pollution, now is the time to invest in clean mobile power,” said Jon Creyts, Chief Executive Officer of RMI. “Innovation, investment, and catalytic collaborations, like this one between RMI and entertainment industry leaders, are all crucial to solving climate change and transforming the toughest industries.”
