❤️🏝️ Love Island UK Powered by the Sun!

This summer’s Love Island UK wasn’t just hot on-screen — it was smart and sustainable behind the scenes too.

We’re proud to share that FTVS provided broadcast infrastructure and compound power using our advanced solar hybrid technology, helping the production reduce its carbon footprint while maintaining world-class reliability.

What we delivered:

-Fully integrated broadcast power systems, designed to support critical camera, editing, and transmission equipment — 24/7.
-Off-grid compound power, keeping the Love Island village running smoothly with low-emission, low-noise energy solutions.
-A seamless blend of solar, battery storage, and efficient backup generation, ensuring resilience and sustainability in the island’s remote setting.
- We produced over 30MWh from the solar array.

Why it matters:

As productions move toward net-zero goals, powering locations with renewable energy isn’t a future ambition — it’s happening now. FTVS’s solar hybrid systems deliver reliable, scalable, and eco-conscious alternatives to diesel-only setups, without compromising performance.

“This project is a testament to what is possible when people collaborate and work together to push boundaries and raise the bar on cleaner, quieter power solutions.”
– Phil Holdgate, Head of Production Sustainability, ITV Studios
