Utah’s Hogle Zoo is launching renewable energy project with support from Rocky Mountain Power’s Blue Sky program participants.
Utah’s Hogle Zoo is continuing to generate its own clean, renewable power thanks to a funding award from Rocky Mountain Power’s Blue Sky program participants. The money will support the installation of renewable energy sources for the upcoming Aline W. Skaggs Wild Utah exhibit.
Utah’s Hogle Zoo joins more than 190 organizations across Rocky Mountain Power’s service area that, since 2006, have received awards for community-based renewable projects, including solar, wind, geothermal, and other forms of renewable energy.
