Ski Resorts Go Green
Vail Resorts, Inc. is truly one with nature – or at least with the wind. They have announced that 100% of their electricity needs (152,000 megawatts per year) will be supplied by wind power. This covers their five ski resort properties, 125 retail locations and corporate headquarters in Broomfield, Colorado. No, windmills will not be making an appearance on the slopes - Renewable Choice Energy will be Vail Resort’s wind power provider. This move makes Vail Resorts the second largest buyer of wind power in the country. Their commitment to this project extends to their resort guests as well. Vail Resorts is offering a free lift ticket to anyone who purchases wind power for their own home.
