Glasgow 2026 venues powered by zero carbon electricity
Major event venues in Glasgow will be powered by renewable electricity after EDF was announced as the official energy and utilities partner of Glasgow 2026.
The Games will be staged across an eight-mile corridor when from 23 July to 2 August with the sporting drama unfolding across four venues.
Scotstoun Stadium, the Glasgow International Arena and Tollcross International Swimming Centre, all currently supplied by EDF, will be powered by a zero-carbon energy tariff, the firm said.
Phil Batty OBE, Chief Executive Officer at Glasgow 2026: “With the support of EDF as a Principal Partner, Glasgow 2026 is showing that a major Games can be done differently and more sustainably.
“With EDF powering existing venues with zero-carbon electricity, which will extend beyond the Games, they’re supporting our ambitions to host a greener Games.”
