The EveryWh2ere Project had two panels on energy at festivals:
Festivals of the Future
Making a huge impact with a low impact on the planet: this is how the future is being built. This panel will show some of the latest ideas, goals and the progress of various smart systems, modules and solutions. From the circular economy to hydrogen energy – these measures will be implemented at the festivals and events of the future and this panel will show you how.

Time is Running Out! Green Energy Solution for Festivals
Trends towards more stringent legislation (Paris 2020) and social
responsibility require urgent action in the substitution of diesel generators
at festivals. A practical solution (wind and solar energy) is to be presented
at EPIC in this session. Various viewpoints of this theme will be discussed
with policy makers, artists and companies using the same technology, with
emphasis on urgency, feasibility, and practical applicability of the presented
solution.

Furthermore we set up the Everywh2ere H2corner at the conference in partnership
with Yourope European Festival association ( https://www.yourope.org/)
and Take a Stand (https://www.take-a-stand.eu/)
to engage stakeholders in conversations on hydrogen, get them as demosite
partners and reach out to industry experts.
