Could Royal Stoke University Hospital go solar?
Royal Stoke University Hospital fills a large modern main building with extensive flat roofs — roughly 15,700 square metres in all. We estimate that could support around 2.3 MW of solar, close to 5,800 panels, generating an estimated 1.6 to 2.0 million kWh a year. Stoke-on-Trent sits at the lower end for annual sun at about 900 hours, but a hospital's demand never lets up. Full-roof estimates only.
