As a press release puts it, “The zero-emissions battery systems partially powering Billie Eilish’s forthcoming set, supplied and managed by Overdrive Energy Solutions, will be charged via a temporary onsite ‘solar farm’ and will serve as a powerful demonstration of clean energy technologies that can drastically reduce live music’s greenhouse gas pollution and accelerate the shift away from fossil fuels.”

“We hope and believe this will be a watershed moment for the music industry.” says Reverb’s Adam Gardner. “There are real climate solutions available right here, right now. By showcasing this technology with one of the biggest artists in the world, on one of the most revered festival stages, we’re accelerating the necessary transition toward a decarbonized future, for music and beyond.”

Eilish previously teamed up with Reverb to help launch the Music Decarbonization Project, which aims to “advance innovative climate solutions to directly eliminate carbon emissions created by the music industry.” For more info, visit Reverb.org.
