The 50th Superbowl at Levi's Stadium will be a net-zero energy game

Levi's Stadium Superbowl at Night
The Superbowl and sustainable aren't two words you would normally find in a sentence, but the San Francisco 49ers and <a href="http://www.hntb.com/" target="_blank">HNTB Corporation</a> have done their level best to change that with the 68,500-seat Levi's Stadium. Solar-powered and crowned with a green roof, the first new NFL stadium to achieve <a href="https://inhabitat.com/tag/leed-gold" target="_blank">LEED Gold</a> certification produces sufficient power to ensure game days will be net-zero energy.
