In Idaho, US, the Boise Airport became powered by 100% renewable energy this fall after the city opted to be the first to sign on to an optional new renewable energy program through Idaho Power. The city of Boise is purchasing enough solar energy to power both the Boise Airport and the Lander Street wastewater treatment facility through 100% renewable energy. The Boise Airport is likely the first municipally-owned major airport in Idaho to become 100% solar energy powered. The move to powering its facilities by renewable energy represents Boise moving forward on climate policies at a time when the Idaho Legislature is actively pushing back against environmental and climate programs.
