#WeAre16 Campaign

Pinergy has announced it is the official energy partner to Munster Rugby, and launched #WeAre16, an innovative campaign to support the sponsorship, which recognises and celebrates the energy that the Munster fans bring to the team, the impact they can make and the vital role they play, because a team without fans is a team without energy!

Pinergy has uniquely partnered with Munster Rugby and the Munster Rugby Supporters Club (MRSC) to launch #WeAre16; a first for the game of rugby. The campaign will see a Fan of the Match announced for every Munster home game for the rest of this season and next season. Pinergy and MRSC will celebrate the 16^th man at each home game, and that fan will be presented with a match worn jersey by a Munster player after games at Thomond Park and Irish Independent Park.

The Fan of the Match will demonstrate the energy, determination, passion and innovation of the Munster Rugby fans. Munster fans will have the chance to nominate themselves or a friend through the MRSC Facebook page, explaining why they deserve the match jersey and Fan of the Match status.

Enda Gunnell, Chief Executive Officer for Pinergy said: “Pinergy has been a partner of Munster Rugby since 2014, and we’re delighted to announce that Pinergy is now the official energy partner. The launch of #WeAre16 is the culmination of a milestone year for Pinergy in scaling the business with a range of innovative and energy efficient solutions to meet the needs of both businesses and homes across Munster. With #WeAre16 we wanted to celebrate the vital energy the fans bring to the team with a first for Irish rugby.”

As well as energising the Munster Rugby fans, Pinergy is also providing electricity for both Thomond Park and Irish Independent Park from this season. Munster Rugby will get greater insight and analytics on their consumption of electricity through their partnership with Pinergy.

Did you know? Thomond Park will use electricity equivalent to that of 120 domestic homes this season.
