Powering Robbie Williams: RVC and NED Hypersilent® Generators at Aftersun Festival 2025
Hypersilent generators
Robbie Williams Aftersun Festival 2025, Malta
On 17th September 2025, the Aftersun Festival lit up the Italian summer with the long-awaited concert by Robbie Williams, confirming its place among the best live events of the year.
Behind the magic of the show, in a spectacular setting surrounded by nature, stood the RVC team and reliability of NED Hypersilent® generators, chosen to deliver continuous and environmentally efficient power.
Stable, hypersilent energy for a flawless show
Events of this magnitude demand power systems capable of handling complex loads — lighting, audio, video and backline — without the slightest fluctuation.
The Hypersilent® generators, designed and manufactured in Italy by NED Generators, ensured a constant and quiet power supply throughout the entire concert, maintaining sound levels well below the limits required for night-time operation.
The installation
For Aftersun Festival 2025, RVC supplied and installed NED Hypersilent® generators in parallel with each other, guaranteeing:
-
Modular and redundant operation, ensuring full continuity even in the event of overload or single-unit shutdown;
-
Advanced soundproofing, with patented canopies and acoustic panels achieving one of the lowest noise levels in the industry;
-
Integrated control panels and remote monitoring, allowing the technical crew to supervise load, consumption and performance in real time;
-
Compact “all-in-one” design, enabling fast setup and effortless mobility — a key advantage in high-pressure live event environments.
Hypersilent®: the benchmark for international live events
Once again, Hypersilent® proved to be the ideal solution for major live productions requiring continuous, stable and above all silent energy.
The concert of Robbie Williams at the Aftersun Festival 2025 is further proof of the ability of NED Hypersilent® generators to be flagship products in its customers’ fleets, such as RVC, supporting global events with high-performance technical solutions, from logistics to post-event monitoring.
Powering the stage: NED and Buffalo behind Ed Sheeran’s european tour | “+-=÷x” (Mathematics)
Power generators for concerts and events
When live music meets engineering excellence, the result is a performance that runs smoothly both on and off stage.
This was the case during Ed Sheeran’s European Tour “+-=÷x” (Mathematics), where power supply played a silent but essential role — especially at one of the most iconic venues in Europe: Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
At the heart of the energy system were Buffalo’s 500kVA generators powered by NED, chosen for their ability to combine:
- robust performance,
- hypersilent operation,
- adaptability to the most demanding scenarios.
A customised solution for Live event power
What made this setup unique wasn’t just the raw power or the parallel operating mode — both of which are standard for large-scale events — but a custom feature designed specifically for the tour’s needs:
the electrical panels were installed inside the generator canopy, creating a dedicated, weather-protected control room.
This solution was developed on direct request from the client, to ensure safe and continuous control access for technicians even under unfavourable weather conditions, such as the frequent rainfalls in the UK.
Power generators for concerts and events: It’s a detail that speaks volumes about the importance of flexibility and foresight when powering international live tours.
Engineering, partnership, performance
Power generators for concerts and events
This achievement is the result of a close and effective collaboration with Buffalo Power, whose deep experience in live event logistics helped define every technical and operational aspect of the installation.
Together, we delivered a tailor-made power solution that exceeded expectations — an example of how engineering precision, attention to detail, and collaborative spirit can support even the world’s most high-profile tours.
Why it matters for the event industry
Events of this scale leave no room for compromise.
Power generators for concerts and events
Organisers, rental companies and production teams alike rely on power systems that offer:
