Reclaim Audio is thrilled to share the fantastic news that our revolutionary GW4K solar-powered amplifier has won the prestigious Green Award at this year’s AV Awards. Developed in close collaboration with Aber Electronics, our GW4K amplifier is designed to support festival and outdoor event companies in reducing their environmental impact and operational costs.
At the heart of this innovation is sustainability, with the 2U amplifier delivering 2 x 2,000W RMS into 4-ohms, providing an impressive 8-hour runtime on a single charge. It’s extendable using solar panels or wind energy, making it the eco-conscious choice for event power needs.
Beyond sustainability, the GreenWaves amplifier offers a solution to reduce reliance on conventional generators. It not only upholds events’ sustainability commitments but also ensures a reliable audio experience. This eco-friendly approach translates into cost-efficiency, lowering the overall expense of event production, benefiting both event organisers and the environment.
Andrew Bishop, Founder of Reclaim Audio, shared insights into the journey behind the GW4K amplifier, saying: “My friend, the University professor, approached me about potential products for his PhD students at a time when the events industry was grappling with COVID-related challenges and lockdowns. This got me thinking about the significance of sustainability in this sector and from that, I saw an opportunity for British companies to make a real impact. Over two years of collaborative research and development with the PhD students, the GW4K amplifier was born.”
Bishop emphasised the significance of the GreenWaves amplifier, stating: “While many festivals and live events talk about their sustainable credentials, one uncomfortable truth is that they require a lot of power, often sourced from generators. Our GW4K amplifier is the perfect product to help deliver on sustainable aims without compromising the performer or audience experience. By drawing power from solar or wind energy, it reduces the overall cost of event delivery, benefiting everyone involved.”
The AV Awards in 2023 marked a significant milestone, hosting a spectacular ceremony to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Led by the multi-award-winning comedian, Rob Beckett, the event was a fantastic showcase of industry achievements.
Bishop also shared his thoughts on this recognition, saying: “This year’s AV Awards ceremony was truly fantastic, and winning the Green Award was a remarkable moment for us. It underscores our deep commitment to sustainable audio technology and motivates us to keep pursuing our mission for a greener future.”
