About
We are a collective of creatives and applied technologists harnessing the power of the sun to fuel our festivities - and yours. SOLAR STATION is our gift to Black Rock City: a utility-scale clean energy power plant providing free solar energy 24 hours a day to charge theme camps, mutant vehicles, e-bikes, art support, phones, batteries, and more. Think of it as the clean energy counterpart to Hell Station - renewable electrons instead of diesel. Beyond the juice, SOLAR STATION is a proof of concept that decentralized clean energy can power real communities in the most demanding environments on earth - from the playa to disaster zones to cities everywhere. Come charge up, tour the system, and catch a glimpse of the world we are collectively building.
