Spurs have submitted a planning application to make some environmentally friendly changes to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Spurs have submitted an application to Haringey Council to install around 3,800 solar panels to the roof of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Premier League club submitted the proposals last month with the hope of the London-based solar specialists Solivus beginning work in September and completing the installation by the end of the year. The plan is to cover an inner and outer ring of the stadium’s glass roof as well as the Sky Walk with the solar panels and associated mounting hardware to ensure Spurs ‘ huge home can generate its own clean electricity to meet net-zero ambitions.
The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium already contains its own battery storage system, designed by Altus Energy, which makes for major economic savings and power resiliency on match and event days, while leveraging backup generators to sell power back to the grid while creating new revenue streams.
That storage system reduced energy costs to the club by more than 40 per cent and also cut the release of toxic Green House Gas emissions by more than half.
Now the stadium, which has been open since 2019, could have almost 4,000 solar panels to keep up with Tottenham’s training ground, Hotspur Way, which already includes such panels around the Enfield complex.
