Could Gtech Community Stadium go solar?

Squeezed against the Kew Bridge junction and opened in 2020, Brentford's Gtech Community Stadium wraps a tight, continuous roof ring around a compact bowl. Its ~12,400 sq m of roof could, in theory, host a ~2.1 MW solar array — generating an estimated 1.8–2.2 million kWh a year, roughly the electricity of 730 west London homes.
