Formula One (F1) has announced a multi-year partnership agreement with temporary power solutions provider Aggreko, roping it in as an Official Provider.
As per the agreement, Aggreko will provide low-carbon energy generation systems at all European Grands Prix from the 2025 season onward. The FIA and F1, therefore, won’t have to bring their own generators to the races.
The aim of the partnership is to drive forward F1’s “Net Zero by 2030” goal.
