Siemens and Linkin Park joining forces for sustainable energy supply

Around 1.3 billion people, or 20 percent of the world's population, do not have access to electricity. The United Nations has therefore launched an initiative and declared the years from 2014 to 2024 to be the "Decade of Sustainable Energy for All". One of the missions of Power the World is to support the UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-Moon, in finding sustainable energy solutions throughout the world.

During Linkin Park's tour through eleven cities from November 3 - 20, 2014, a so-called "power booth" - a specially equipped multimedia container set up by Siemens, Linkin Park and Warner Music - will turn visitor's attention to Power the World. Inside the container, a multimedia show will raise awareness about the fact that access to electricity is unfortunately not a matter of course in other regions of the world to motivate visitors to learn more and get involved. The fans can also take their picture inside the container. The selfies that are taken in the container before the concert will then be shown as part of a pre-show presentation and a drawing held for all participants for a special "Linkin Park edition e-Smart". Power the World will also be highlighted in a short teaser film prior to the stage show.
