Legion Paper, the nation's largest supplier of fine art paper, has converted its Moab offices to rely solely on wind power through Rocky Mountain Power's Blue Sky program.

The program allows energy consumers to buy wind energy in 100-kilowatt-hour blocks for $1.95 per block per month. Rocky Mountain Power uses that money to buy renewable energy, increasing the demand for electricity generated through renewable resources.

Legion Paper, which supplies fine art, digital fine art, handmade and decorative paper, joins hundreds of Utah businesses taking part in Blue Sky and more than 20,000 customers who have signed up for the program so far.

"For years we have recycled our paper and cardboard waste and now we can use renewable wind to power our operations. By each doing a little, we can accomplish great things together," said Gregory Schern, Legion Paper's director of digital imaging.

The United States' total wind energy capacity at the end of 2006 was 11,603 megawatts, enough electricity to power more than 2.9 million average households, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
