San Antonio Spurs' arena to be powered by wind
Spurs owner Peter Holt said that the energy switch is part of an initiative to make the AT&T Center the greenest arena in the U.S.
"We are exploring recycling and water conservation ideas as well," Holt said in a press release. "We really want to be a model for arenas across the country regarding sensitivity to the environment."
The arena has been powered with "Windtricity" from CPS Energy since June 1.

Wind Power Surges in U.S. Electricity Mix
In early 2025, wind power has significantly strengthened its position in the United States' electricity generation portfolio. According to data from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), wind energy accounted for 30.1% of the new electricity capacity added in January 2025, surpassing the previous record set in 2024. This growth is attributed to substantial projects such as the 390.4 MW Cedar Springs Wind IV and the 330.0 MW Boswell Wind Farm in Wyoming, along with the 300.0 MW Prosperity Wind Farm in Illinois and the 201.0 MW Golden Hills Wind Farm Expansion in Oregon.
