Making live productions more sustainable

Making live productions more sustainable

Live production can leave a huge carbon footprint behind it, but work is underway to shrink it dramatically and make it far more sustainable.

A piece for Red Shark.

Snippet: Sky went carbon neutral for all its UK sports OBs in 2021, and also produced its first net carbon zero football match in September, reducing its emissions for the game by an estimated 70% (offsetting the remaining 30%).

Its news coverage of the COP26 conference went further. This broke new ground by setting up a dedicated news channel produced entirely in the cloud, and Sky estimates that this reduced its emission footprint by 90%; generating 10kgs of CO2 per 9 hours of programming versus what would have been 119kg by traditional means. And this figure doesn’t even factor in the benefits of not leaving traditional on-prem gallery equipment running 24/7 as is usual throughout the industry.

COP27 takes place in Egypt in November and such is the speed of progress at the moment in the industry that it wouldn’t be surprising to see many more cloud-based channels and workflows reporting back from it.
