Xanterra Parks & Resorts Set To Install One Of Largest Solar Energy Systems In U.S

11/13/2007 2:09:32 PM

Xanterra Parks & Resorts (www.xanterra.com) has announced it will install one of the largest solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems in the country – and the largest system in the U.S. tourism industry – in Death Valley National Park, the sunniest place in the country. The one megawatt (MW) system will harness the sun’s energy to generate more than one-third of the annual electricity needs for Xanterra’s operations there, comprised of the Furnace Creek Inn, Ranch and golf course and employee offices and housing.

Xanterra’s system in Death Valley will be one of the largest privately owned PV energy systems in the country, and easily the largest in the U.S tourism industry. Xanterra, the country’s leading national and state park concessioner, will fully own the system and the energy it produces.
