Summer Concerts Ditch Diesel Generators for NOMAD’s Clean, Silent Battery Power,

Over four concerts, NOMAD’s 1.3 MWh Voyager prevented as much CO2 pollution as is caused by driving 5,000 miles

WATERBURY, Vt.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Concerts from Guster, Jason Mraz, Train, and Joe Russo’s Almost Dead got cleaner this summer thanks to NOMAD Transportable Power Systems. One of NOMAD’s 1.3 MWh Voyager units rolled in to power the Shelburne Museum concert series outside Burlington, Vermont this summer, replacing diesel generators with stored clean energy and avoiding almost 4,500 pounds of carbon dioxide pollution.

“At the shows, our job was making sure we kept the sound and lights powered so the great musicians on stage could delight the crowds,” said Chris McKay, NOMAD’s Chief Operating Officer. “When we realized that we’d powered 72 hours of concerts – from setup and sound check through breakdown – we decided to look at the environmental impact we were having.”

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator, the NOMAD-powered concerts avoided the carbon dioxide equivalent of a passenger car driving 5,115 miles. That’s nearly the same as driving from NOMAD’s headquarters in Vermont, all the way to the site of KORE Power’s KOREPlex in Arizona – and back. (NOMAD is powered with KORE Power battery modules.)

It’s also the equivalent of burning more than 2,000 pounds of coal or fully charging 132,033 smartphones.

The concerts were part of the summer series hosted by the Shelburne Museum. The unit was charged up on Green Mountain Power’s carbon-free energy supply.

As a Vermonter, McKay said he was most impressed by the pollution the Voyager avoided, while delivering reliable power and eliminating generator noise.

“In just four concerts, we avoided the carbon sequestered by more than 2 acres of U.S. Forest in a year.”

McKay said his team is hitting its stride powering concerts, sporting events, festivals and other activities. Working in partnership with Lex Products, NOMAD is looking to scale its efforts in the coming months.

“Every day customers come to us with new use cases, and we’re excited to put NOMAD units to work, delivering power, saving money on fuel costs, and when we can, helping them cut their carbon footprint, too.”
