Finley Stadium

Chattanooga’s Finley Stadium is the site of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system that began producing electricity for Green Power Switch in July 2001. The 11 solar arrays, which are mounted on canopies located in one of the stadium parking lots, can produce about 127,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity a year, enough to supply eight or nine typical Tennessee Valley homes.

Finley Stadium was opened in 1997 as part of Chattanooga’s ongoing downtown revitalization. It’s the home of the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga football team and has hosted the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team and the NCAA Division 1-AA National Football Championship game.

The energy generated at the site goes into the electric system of Chattanooga EPB, the local distributor of TVA power.
