In an impressive display of innovation and environmental responsibility, NXTGENbps has partnered with High Viz Media Group to deliver a sustainable power solution for a recent motorsports broadcast. The collaboration centered around a Family Day event hosted by a renowned automotive brand at their Hethel campus, where cutting-edge battery technology was utilized to ensure seamless and environmentally friendly broadcasting.

Meeting the Challenge

The Family Day event, which took place on a former World War II airfield, presented unique challenges. High Viz Media Group was tasked with providing comprehensive outside broadcasting facilities to cover the races involving both modern vehicles and heritage cars. However, the remote location lacked existing power infrastructure, necessitating a creative approach to power supply.

In response, Connect Live, the event production company, set a goal to deliver the broadcast using sustainable power solutions, thereby reducing the environmental impact and minimizing risks associated with motorsport events.

The Solution: NXTGENbps Goat

NXTGENbps introduced their innovative Goat portable battery system to meet these challenges. The Goat’s 5kW/4.8kWh lithium-ion battery offered a reliable and easy-to-use power source, perfectly suited to the event’s needs.

Reliable Power Supply: The Goat batteries powered six PTZ cameras and various broadcasting equipment, providing uninterrupted live coverage throughout the day. This dependable power source ensured the broadcast’s success, allowing the audience to enjoy continuous footage of the thrilling races.

Efficient Solar Charging: Integrated with solar panels, the Goat demonstrated its ability to charge efficiently even while in use. Starting the day at 90% charge and ending at 97%, the system showcased its capacity for sustainable energy replenishment, bolstering confidence in green power solutions.

Silent Operation and Easy Deployment: The Goat’s silent operation eliminated noise pollution, preserving the event’s atmosphere and avoiding interference with audio feeds. Additionally, its portability enabled easy deployment across the expansive Hethel campus, simplifying logistics and enhancing operational efficiency.

Environmental Benefits

The motorsports industry is increasingly focusing on reducing its carbon footprint and embracing green technologies. NXTGENbps’s Goat system exemplifies this shift by providing a zero-emission alternative to traditional diesel generators. High Viz Media Group’s decision to use the Goat reflects a strong commitment to environmental sustainability, aligning with the industry’s efforts to promote greener practices.

The deployment of the Goat not only ensured reliable power for the broadcast but also demonstrated a commitment to creating a healthier environment for both the crew and the audience.
