Ethics Matters

Q1 2024

Were you one of the millions of viewers of this year’s Super Bowl? If so, you witnessed history and may not have even known! The 2024 Super Bowl, which took place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, NV, was powered entirely by renewable energy. This was the first-ever Super Bowl to have been done this way! Who made it possible? A company by the name of Canadian Solar Inc. 

The company sourced the electricity from the Arrow Canyon Solar and Energy Storage Project, developed, owned, and operated by EDF Renewables. According to a recent PR Newswire release, Allegiant Stadium’s use of solar power highlights the viability of renewable energy sources in powering major events and facilities. For both the U.S. and global markets, the success of this event represents a significant milestone in the transition toward a sustainable energy future. 

“We are honored to have been selected by EDF Renewables as the solar module provider for the Arrow Canyon project and to contribute to such a groundbreaking moment in sports history,” said Thomas Koerner, Senior Vice President of Canadian Solar.
