About Bluepig Energy

Bluepig was born from our own frustration with diesel generators.

Based in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, Bluepig Energy provides silent, solar-assisted battery power for weddings and events where atmosphere comes first.

Our power never disrupts the moment.

We recently powered a wedding at Forcett Hall, supplying electricity for the marquee lighting, festoon lights and live music using our silent battery energy system. Despite challenging access and a lawn installation, everything ran flawlessly—with no engine noise, no fumes and no diesel generator spoiling the occasion.

Weddings have evolved.

Couples are choosing local flowers, seasonal menus and venues surrounded by nature. Yet many celebrations are still relying on noisy, polluting diesel generators.

We believe there's a better way.

The future of event power is silent, renewable and reliable.

✓ Silent operation that protects the atmosphere you've worked so hard to create. ✓ Zero local emissions and no diesel fumes around guests. ✓ Reliable off-grid power for even the most remote venues. ✓ Gentle on beautiful gardens, parks and natural landscapes.

Because the power should never steal the spotlight.

If you're planning your own wedding, a wedding planner, marquee company or venue looking for a quieter, cleaner alternative to diesel generators, we'd love to chat.

Bluepig Energy — Silent power for unforgettable moments.

Our Story

The Bluepig Story Some of the best ideas don't begin in a laboratory. They begin with frustration. For us, it started standing in beautiful places—festivals in remote valleys, weddings in stunning gardens, and events surrounded by nature—only for the atmosphere to be interrupted by the constant drone and diesel fumes of a generator.

It never felt right.

People were choosing local food, sustainable suppliers and breathtaking venues, yet the thing powering it all was often the least considered part of the experience.

So we asked a simple question: What if the power disappeared into the background?

Not because it wasn't there, but because it was silent.

That question became Bluepig Energy.

Built by two people who live and work off-grid every day, Bluepig combines years of practical electrical engineering, renewable energy expertise and real-world experience creating reliable power systems. We didn't design a battery to replace a generator—we designed an entirely different way of thinking about off-grid energy. Our Bluepig units provide 40kWh of silent battery storage, integrated solar charging and off-grid connectivity through Starlink, delivering dependable power without noise, fumes or disruption. They quietly power weddings, festivals, sporting events and remote locations while protecting the atmosphere that people have spent months creating.

From powering an entire off-grid festival to lighting marquees, running live music and keeping vendors connected, every event proves the same thing: People remember the moment—not the power behind it. And that's exactly how it should be.

We believe the future of temporary power isn't louder generators or cleaner fuel. It's removing the generator altogether.

Because beautiful places deserve better power.

Because silence creates better experiences.

Because the power should never steal the spotlight.

If you're planning a wedding, festival or outdoor event and want clean, silent, reliable power that lets the occasion speak for itself, we'd love to help.

Our Team

Bluepig Energy was founded by two people who saw a problem first-hand and decided to build a better solution. Tom and Jem share a passion for creating practical, sustainable solutions that don't compromise on performance.

With backgrounds in engineering, renewable energy systems and building bespoke off-grid vehicles, they've spent years designing reliable electrical systems for customers who demand independence from traditional power.

That experience naturally led to a bigger question: if off-grid power can be silent and sustainable for campervans and remote living, why are events still relying on noisy diesel generators?

The answer became Bluepig Energy.

Together, Tom and Emily have combined technical expertise with real-world experience to create mobile energy systems that help weddings, festivals, sporting events and outdoor venues reduce emissions without sacrificing reliability.

They're not just supplying power—they're helping reshape how outdoor events think about energy. From the first conversation through to on-site support, you'll be working directly with the people who designed and built the system, ensuring every event is powered with care, attention and expertise. Our mission is simple: provide clean, silent, dependable energy that lets unforgettable moments take centre stage.

Experience

Bluepig Energy was born from experience—not theory.

For over seven years, we've been designing and building high-quality off-grid electrical systems through our sister company, Live Slow Campers. During that time we've developed reliable power solutions for customers who depend on energy in the most remote locations, giving us a deep understanding of battery technology, renewable energy and intelligent power management.

The idea for Bluepig came while supporting an ultra-trail running event. Despite being surrounded by stunning scenery, the event relied on noisy, diesel generators that disrupted the atmosphere they were trying to create. We knew there had to be a better way.

That challenge inspired us to build our first mobile battery energy storage system, repurposing electric vehicle batteries to create clean, silent power for outdoor events.

Since then, Bluepig Energy has successfully powered festivals, sporting events and weddings, including supplying energy for an entire off-grid event village with lighting, catering, music, exhibitors and retail stands—all without the noise, fumes or environmental impact of traditional generators.

Key Milestones 2019 – Founded Live Slow Campers, specialising in premium off-grid electrical systems. 2025 – The Bluepig concept was born after witnessing the limitations of diesel generators at an off-grid event. 2026 – Bluepig successfully powered the Peak Divide ultra-trail event using silent battery energy. 2026 – Expanded into the wedding and private events sector, delivering silent power at venues including Forcett Hall. Today – Helping event organisers reduce emissions, improve guest experience and demonstrate that reliable off-grid power doesn't need diesel.

Looking Ahead

Our ambition is simple: to make diesel generators the exception rather than the rule at outdoor events. By combining second-life EV batteries, renewable energy and smart power management, we're proving that cleaner energy isn't just better for the environment—it's better for the people experiencing the event too. Because the future of temporary power should be silent, sustainable and dependable.
