Wembley’s roof could power 1,164 homes.

Wembley from above, with Google’s measured sun intensity over the roof. Brighter means more energy landing per square metre.

We measured it from satellite: about 26,347 m² of roof, room for roughly 8,653 panels, around 3.5 MWp. Then we did another 104 of Britain’s biggest roofs. Together they could power about 73,000 homes.

Yours won’t power 1,164 homes. But it might power yours.
