Airport Gets Greener

Jackson Hole Airport has committed to 100% Green Power, provided by Lower Valley Energy in time for the winter 2018/2019 season. The airport represents the largest commercial conversion to Green Power in the community this year and one of its largest overall. Jackson Hole Airport joins a group of airports across the U.S., including Fresno, Indianapolis, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and San Diego who also use Green Power. Jackson Hole Airport Board President Jerry Blann points out that the move is in keeping with the airport seeking to align its sustainability goals with the values of Grand Teton National Park and the community. With its commitment to Green Power for their operations, all the airport’s electricity needs will be met from local, and regional power produced at the Horse Butte Wind Farm, outside Idaho Falls and from several local micro-hydroelectric facilities owned and operated by LVE along with other regional wind farms.
