Good for the environment perhaps, but gross to look at.

this is awesome. powering up all those lights and 2 giant television screens with nothing but solar energy? while at the same time preventing carbon dioxide to fill up the air? definetly something the US should be doing.

It will also be good to know how much the whole solar panel installation cost. Remember, the real issue with solar energy is the high capital cost (with some solar power plants quoted at over $2.5 million / MW). Also, what sort of solar panels are these – thin film or the usual? I visited the stadium site, couldn’t find much else other than what’s given here.

Also, it states “A Taiwanese official said that the panels will generate 1.14 million KWh per year, preventing 660 tons of annual carbon dioxide.” I think a coal fired power plant generates about 1 T of CO2 per MWh, which means at 1140 MWh,it should be preventing about 1100 CO2…anyway, half of that is still good, so let me not complain!

Interesting post, thanks!

very cool. In the meantime, we can buy carbon offsets at carbonfund website. Its pretty cool, you can offset your car and air travel. You can also choose the 100% offset option or donate clean power.
