Did you hear that the owner of the Philadelphia Eagles is going to mount wind turbines and solar panels on the outside of the stadium? His goal is a completely “green” stadium. I wonder how much this will cost taxpayers, cost the team, and save in power? I already know that the standard power supply must still remain in place, to take over when his “green” power plant fails. I suppose it means that when the stadium produces power and is empty, it sells the power back to the grid at the owners profit, but it spreads the cost on all taxpayers......sweet deal if you can get it.
Aren’t there wind gusts in Philly in excess of 30 MPH, wind turbines produce most effective energy in 16 to 20 MPH steady winds, his plan is doomed to fail as the turbines would be locked down for much of the year.
