The announcement comes as Dortmund has already pushed forward in other areas of stadium innovation. In recent months, the club and its sustainability partner RWE completed the installation of a record-setting 5 MW solar array on the stadium roof — the most powerful photovoltaic system ever installed on a football stadium — enabling BVB to source up to half of its own electricity from renewable energy and significantly cut CO₂ emissions. �
