Could Anfield go solar?

Anfield's skyline has shifted with the expanded Main Stand and the rebuilt Anfield Road end, and it's those broad roofs that carry the solar potential. Panels across Liverpool FC's ~20,000 sq m of stand roofing could reach a theoretical ~3 MW, generating an estimated 2.2–2.7 million kWh a year — roughly the electricity of 900-odd Merseyside homes.
