The Pramac Racing team is probably the most eco-friendly team in the MotoGP. The Ducati Satellite team was launched as the Green Energy Team last year, and they continue their efforts to reduce their environmental impact in 2011 with the eco-hospitality tent.
Team Principle Paolo Campinoti and the Pramac Racing team have been constantly upping their efforts to reduce their pollution. Last year, the Pramac Racing team started using electric, solar powered bikes in the paddock. The food and beverages consumed by the team are also supplied by certified zero CO2 emission companies. The Green Energy team also uses ecological paints, and fuels their trucks with ecodiesel.
“Once again, Pramac distinguished itself for the ecological sustainability that has characterized our company for a few years,” said Paolo Campinoti. “This Eco Hospitality is a unique piece in the world. We, as the MotoGP Green Energy Team, couldn't be more satisfied with this structure. We will completely avoid CO2 emissions, and we will lower the enviromental impact, all for the love and respect of our planet. We are very glad about this initiative, which was prepared thanks to the support of various technical partners.”
The Pramac Racing team’s efforts so far have been impressive, and they continued their exemplary path today with the Eco Hospitality tent.
“Pramac Eco Hospitality project hopes to show that today's technologies already allow us to reduce to zero the production of CO2 from our homes, offices and companies,” said Pramac Racing in a press release. “Pramac Eco Hospitality is a unique and innovative vehicle with zero CO2 emissions, thanks to features including self-sufficient electricity production by 70 square metres of Pramac Micromorph solar panels and a three-bladed wind turbine made by Pramac and designed by Philippe Starck.
“The electricity produced is used for the operation of all electrical components inside the hospitality—naturally, low-energy components, such as LED lamps, televisions, kitchen refrigerators, office equipment, etc. In addition, the excess electricity produced is used to charge a battery that will provide up to ten hours of power during the night.”
