The BBC’s massive broadcasting operation at the Queen’s funeral will be fuelled by eco-friendly vegetable oil.
Generators providing electricity for the corporation’s 213 cameras at the event will be run on Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), which emits far fewer carbon emissions than regular generator diesel.
The BBC will also save power by using energy-saving LED lighting in its studios in London and Windsor.
Cameras that film in Ultra High Definition will be used for the coverage, which airs from 8am to 5pm, so high-quality footage is preserved for archives.
Huw Edwards and Fergal Keane will present the BBC’s coverage from London while Kirsty Young and David Dimbleby will be based in Windsor.
