Santos Laguna makes history by becoming the first Liga MX team to install solar panels at its stadium, the TSM. This pioneering project, announced in July 2026, marks a significant step towards sustainability in Mexican football. The club, currently in 11th place in the league table with 0 points after a loss in its first game of the season, demonstrates its commitment to innovation and environmental care.
What does this project entail?
The installation of solar panels at the TSM will allow the generation of renewable energy to power stadium operations. According to project leaders, this initiative will significantly reduce the club's carbon footprint. Santos Laguna, which has scored 2 goals and conceded 3 this season, aims to inspire other Liga MX teams to adopt more sustainable practices.
Why is this important for Santos Laguna?
In addition to the environmental benefits, this project strengthens Santos Laguna's image as an innovative club. At a time when the team is 6 points behind league leaders Cruz Azul, this initiative shows that the club is focused on the future, both on and off the field. Santos Laguna's next match will be against New York City FC on August 6, 2026, where they will seek their first win of the season.
What's next for the TSM?
The TSM stadium will not only be a benchmark in sustainability but will also continue to be a key venue for Mexican football. With this innovation, Santos Laguna hopes to attract more events and sponsors who value environmental commitment. The club, which has started the season with a loss, aims to improve its performance on the field while continuing to lead in off-field initiatives.
