Park City Police Facility Drawing on Power of the Sun

PARK CITY, Utah — The Park City Police Force has a new resource at its disposal: the power of the sun. Thanks to support from Rocky Mountain Power’s Blue Sky program the City was able to install 88 American-made solar panels on the Police Facility in August 2012. The 22 kilowatts of solar energy will generate 35,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year, nearly enough to power four average Utah households. The solar panels complement a wide variety of green measures, such as geothermal heat pumps, that were previously integrated into the facility when it was built in 2007.

Complete press release available for review.

In 2019, Park City Municipal partnered with Canyons Village Management Association, Deer Valley Resort, and Park City Mountain to launch Ride On Park City. This platform allows employees and partners of these organizations to find a carpool match, real time transit information, e-bikes, and more. So far, we have prevented 46.1 tons of C02 from entering the atmosphere, and taken nearly 15,000 non-single occupancy trips in the Park City area.
