The last door opens onto the largest contiguous rooftop solar array in the United States: 26,000 solar panels across 28 acres atop the resort’s convention center. They can produce 8.3 megawatts, enough to power 8,300 homes — or a quarter of the energy consumed by the sprawling Mandalay Bay at peak usage. “The benefit of being in southern Nevada is we have a lot of sun,” said Campbell, who installed these panels as executive director of sustainability for Mandalay Bay parent MGM Resorts before moving on to a similar job with the local school district.
