SUSTAINABILITY
How big a challenge is making a carbon neutral e-prix ? Describe some of the challenges faced .
The most exciting challenge is to ensure the sustainability of all the events from an energy standpoint . This can be achieved thanks to Enel ’ s experience in the renewables sector and in off-grid technologies . We firmly believe that Enel ’ s micro grid solutions will be able to both rationalise power consumption needs and diversify energy sources , thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions and Formula E ’ s carbon footprint . In this context the correct sizing of an extremely modular solution will be essential for guaranteeing both the micro grid ’ s full reliability and lower generation costs .
Another challenge is the variable nature of Formula E races around the world due to their location and the different availability levels of renewable sources . These differences influence the type and amount of load Enel will need to supply .
