    Very cool move by them. Nice to hear Nash was a big pusher for this.

    Nice little eco-marketing move.

    Aptly fits their team name as well.

    Kudos to them.

    I agree, this is pretty cool. Slowly but surely this is more and more mainstream.

    Having been to Phoenix a couple of times, I can attest: they have more than enough sunlight there to get the job done. Oy vey, is it hot!

    ever been to Houston?

    Phoenix has dry desert heat, it's more bearable then humid sticky heat.

    Grew up in Houston. And Phoenix is hotter. In Houston, I was so hot I was miserable. In Phoenix, I began to seriously worry that I might combust.

    Living in San Antonio, I know that the AT&T center is powered by “windtricity”. Pretty cool.
