Tree Power & Sound, the latest addition to the Tree family, is providing off-grid energy to run live events. A wind tower and solar panels attached to a trailer make it easy to bring you a "clean" show. The tower and panels harness energy and store it in large batteries. All of that stored energy can be accessed from outlets on the side of the Trailer. In the past year TP&S has powered the Jam Cruise Pool Side Stage, Virgin Mobile Fest Green Spot, Captain Planet's Xmas Party green carpet entrance, Sweetwater Brewing Company's benefit for Upper Chattahoochee River Keeper and three days at Eddie's Attic with Shawn Mullins and Collective Soul.
