Bundesliga club chooses green power

German Bundesliga football club Hamburger Sport-Verein e.V. (HSV) has agreed a deal with electricity supplier ENTEGA which will see the team’s home stadium entirely powered by electricity from renewable sources.

ENTEGA will also become an official partner of the club under the deal and HSV fans will be offered special rates on ENTEGA’s Green Electricity supply products.

HSV’s stadium, the HSV Arena, will be powered with carbon-neutral electricity from July 2010.

The deal was brokered by the Sportfive agency.
