God, no, to solar panels. Waste of money.

Concentrate on building a user-friendly design with good views from all stands and, somehow, a bit of 'character' instead of just the usual concrete boxes we see these days. How to do this? I don't know, I'm not an architect, but I'm sure it's possible!

Obviously, improved catering and amenities would also be nice.

Surely the club don't pay for the panels but get a cut of the power produced from the installers?

Really Are you sure about that lol

Benefits and how much does a Commercial PV Solar system cost?
  • Enviromentally friendly!
  • Electricity prices will increase average annual fuel price rises of 8 per cent, there’s the risk fuel bills could double by 2023.
  • Reduce operating costs - The stadium woudn't use any electricity from the powergrid, so no electricity bill.
  • New housing development, retail outlets could run from the excess Electricity produced, or/and any excess sold back to the national grid.

Commercial Solar systems tend to range between 4kWp and 50kWp in size, although it is possible to install systems up to 5MW. Prices vary depending on system size, but typically cost between £7,500 for a 4kWp system and up to £87,500 for a 50kWp system.

Through Feed-in Tariff payments, Businesses can expect to recover the cost of installation in around 7 years and get a profitable Return on Investment of around 13%.

For example, a large Business with 240 square meters of roof space available may opt for a 30kWp Commercial Solar PV system, which would cost an estimated £52,500 to install.

Through the Feed-in Tariff payments, the Business could expect to recuperate £6,847 per year in Commercial Solar earnings and savings, recovering the cost of installation within 7 years and giving a profitable return of £136,940 in income and savings over the 20 year FIT period.

The table below highlights estimated costs and savings for Commercial PV Solar systems suitable for Businesses - 10kWp, 25kWp and 50kWp - as well as the impressive Return on Investment:
