Bullfrog Launch Event
In Fall 2009, Bullfrog will begin sourcing from Bear Mountain Wind Farm, which will be B.C.’s first fully operational wind farm. Currently, 20% of Bullfrog’s power mix comes from wind generation facilities located in Pincher Creek, Alberta, and the remainder comes from low-impact hydro in B.C. Bullfrog Power’s goal is to continue to advance the development of new wind power in B.C., just as it has in Alberta and Ontario. Click here to learn more about Bullfrog's alternative power projects.
Supporting emission-free renewable power is a great way to reduce your organization's carbon footprint and help combat climate change and air pollution. To learn more and to become Bullfrogpowered, go to www.bullfrog.com .
