🎬 Powering the Silver Screen Sustainably: How Vichar is Changing the Energy Game for Film Sets
Behind every captivating shot in cinema lies a web of logistics, and at the heart of it all is one unshakable necessity—power. From early-morning lighting setups to long catering hours and high-performance sound equipment, outdoor film shoots demand consistent, portable, and quiet energy solutions. Now, thanks to Vichar Power Storage Systems, the film industry has a clean, smart alternative to diesel generators.
The Hidden Energy Footprint of Film Sets.
Outdoor film productions are a spectacle—but they’re also an operational marathon. Shooting in remote or semi-urban locations often means power access is limited or entirely unavailable. Traditionally, diesel generators have been the go-to solution, but they come with several downsides:
High Fuel Costs
Noise pollution disrupting shots
Emissions impacting crew health and local environments
Regulatory restrictions on usage and transport
As sustainability becomes central to production ethics, Vichar Power offers a forward-thinking solution.
Lights, Camera, Clean Power.
Let’s look at how Vichar fits seamlessly into real-world film operations:
Small Outdoor Film Set (10-Hour Shooting Day)
A compact crew setup typically consumes:
- Cameras – 1 kWh/day
- Lighting – 15 kWh/day
- Sound Systems – 9 kWh/day
- Catering – 20 kWh/day
- Miscellaneous – 2.4 kWh/day
👉 Total Energy Use: 47.5 kWh per day
With Vichar’s 530 kWh battery system, that’s: 🎬 10 Full Days of uninterrupted shooting without refueling.
Mid-Sized Outdoor Film Set (10-Hour Shooting Day)
For a larger production scale, the energy profile includes:
- Cameras – 2 kWh/day
- Lighting – 30 kWh/day
- Sound – 14 kWh/day
- Catering – 34.9 kWh/day
- Miscellaneous – 5.2 kWh/day
