Friday, February 9, 2024

LAS VEGAS, Feb. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time in history, football's biggest game will be powered by 100% renewable, carbon-free energy (CFE), independently verified by real-time data and decarbonization platform NZero.

Key Points:

Decarbonization platform NZero quantified and independently validated the team and stadium's energy and emissions data associated with Sunday's global event.
However, because the stadium is powered by 100% CFE, the game will have zero electricity-associated emissions.
The Las Vegas Raiders and Allegiant Stadium work with NZero to report and roadmap their ongoing net zero plans, which include validating the two organizations' energy and emissions data and providing insights and analysis for their decarbonization efforts.
NZero tracks energy and emissions in real-time, allowing insights into emissions reduction efforts before and after the NV Energy agreement.
