Partner Profile The two largest ski and golf resorts in the state of Maine, Sunday River and Sugarloaf/USA are both 100 percent wind powered for all resort electricity usage. With business that depends on winter weather, the resorts want to be proactive against climate change and have found that the benefits of being green far outweigh the small up-front costs. One of the biggest benefits of purchasing green power is that guests—mostly outdoor enthusiasts—appreciate the resorts doing their part. If everyone does a little, our country can move towards energy independence while taking steps to ward off climate change.
