Typically, a festival of this size would require diesel generators to supply its power. However, when the site manager alerted the organisers to the possibility of connecting to a grid power feed at a nearby sub-station, ZAP Concepts were called in to conduct a feasibility study around this. Through the development of a Smart Power Plan, coupled with real-time energy monitoring &amp; advice on the best choice of electrical contractor, ZAP Concepts were able to power the entire festival from existing capacity on the grid. This was a \u2018win win\u2019 situation for the organisers: not only did this save them money by not having to hire in generators, but it was also a more sustainable solution which helped reduce CO2e emissions &amp; reduce overall energy consumption.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fvqei4uyujs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Marco van Uden, producent Vestival:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>ZAP Concepts played a key role in helping us select our electrical contractor. Their thorough &amp; robust research helped us realize that our original first choice contractor did not have sufficient experience or technical knowledge to safely deliver power for our event. This advice was invaluable &amp; together we were able to find the right supplier for this job.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Running a complete festival on the local grid, is that even possible?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":367,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-422","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-vestival-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=422"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":879,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/422\/revisions\/879"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zapconcepts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
