Where sustainability meets creativity

Implement a custom solar generating system with a programmable LED ring array.

Two teams. One stadium.

MetLife Stadium, home to both the New York Jets and New York Football Giants, sports a full, game-day seating capacity of 82,500. It’s also home to 20 games per season—more than any other in the league.

Since breaking ground in 2009, MetLife has been committed to reducing environmental impact, using recycled materials for construction and diesel fuel in the machinery. We joined the team to take their sustainable initiative. 

A matchup of powerhouses

We’re one of the largest power generation companies in the U.S. and a leader in providing clean energy solutions to large business customers. Powering one of the largest venues in the league made perfect sense to us.

Our team of experts put their heads together for ways to reduce air pollution, conserve water and energy, improve waste management, and lessen MetLife Stadium’s environmental impact.

Coming full circle

We worked with vendors to design and build a custom solar power generating system—called the Solar Ring—that powers the stadium’s integrated LED lighting, display system, and everyday electricity needs.

It also adds a striking visual element to the top of the stadium: the Solar Ring has the ability to display team colors and an array of additional hues to support other visiting events, like concerts and college sports.
