Remember the infamous Super Bowl Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction that prompted thousands of instant replays, video analyses and YouTube views?
How could you not?
Well, as you’re noshing on all your munchies this weekend during the “Big Game” (I’ll probably be shoveling snow), consider that the National Football League has taken extra pains to make sure that all the video footage that it creates documenting America’s “favorite sport” is being produced just a little bit more efficiently from an energy consumption standpoint.
The NFL Films division, a 200-square-foot video production facility located in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, has just signed a deal with Veolia Energy North America, which is a co-generation company and a provider of what it is calling sustainabile energy services. What this means in non-technical jargon is that Veolia will take on the management of a facility that supplies the studio with thermal and emergency energy. That facility today includes two large industrial chillers, a tower for cooling and boilers.
The deal is just the latest I’ve seen for companies in the business of co-generation.
