Are you intending that that comes from renewable sourced energy as well?
Uh and in terms of the the wider impact on the events industry, first of all, we we've said a couple of times already that this is a a UK first.
Um are you hoping that this leads to other organisers, other councils, other authorities, stakeholders involved in outdoor events of any kind across the UK looking at this project, how it
it you know, manifests itself once it's operational and deciding actually this is something that we could do.
Have you already and you don't have to name names, but have you already engaged with other organisers and other uh people within the events industry?
Have they been coming to you to pick your brains and say, How are you doing this? 'Cause this is something that we're really keeping a close eye on?
Absolutely.
And um in terms of project timeline, um, I suppose it i it's really key that we ask that today.
You know that you broke ground in March.
Um w what is the project timeline at the moment and when are you hoping that it will be operational?
Wow.
Um it it seems bit pretty quick and I and I dare say if we if we dived into more of the sort of the technical aspects, I I guess a lot of the stuff can be either prefabricated or pre um you know commissioned off site.
You know, I guess is it very much a case that once once the hole has been dug, you bring the substation in, you bring the infrastructure in and literally drop it in?
Absolutely.
I I remember that um the first time years ago that uh somebody ever gave me a laser measure on an event site and told me that I could use this laser measure to measure really accurately.
I remember using it, but then inevitably getting the measuring tape out as well and laying it down because I because I didn't because I didn't trust it at all.
It uh and of course inevitably over a few times of using it, you you your trust is built.
Um
And you can put the measuring tape away.
Uh i is i is there an intention that with these first events in June once it once it is op operational, that there will be a a a level of redundancy just in this first year, should anything happen, or is the intention to go fully with the the the the the grid and the mains power in June?
