Valley Children’s Healthcare has broken ground on a microgrid project that is set to include solar panels, fuel cells and battery storage.
The hospital says it will be one of the largest renewable energy microgrids connected to a hospital emergency system in the country.
“Today marks a momentous milestone for Valley Children’s, and this initiative is a testament to our unwavering commitment that our hospital remains a beacon of hope and care, regardless of external circumstances,” says Valley Children’s Healthcare president and CEO Todd Suntrapak.
“By investing in this cutting-edge technology, we are securing a reliable energy source for our patients, doctors and staff and contributing to a more sustainable future for our community.”
Expected to be operational next year, the microgrid is expected to cover 80% of the hospital’s energy needs.
In 2023, Valley Children’s joined the U.S Department of Energy’s Better Climate Challenge, an initiative aimed at accelerating decarbonization across various sectors in the country.

It’s a tragedy that this didn’t happen in 2015 when Trump entered the political scene.
This is exactly correct. As the CEO of one of the major television networks said back in 2015, “Trump is terrible for the nation, but he’s great for us.”
I guess the takeaway is simply this: We’ll do anything for money.
