The arena where the San Antonio Spurs play will be powered solely by wind-generated electricity for the next two years.

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.
