Glacier National Park’s headquarters has gone solar.
With support through the Glacier National Park Conservancy, Everybody Solar, and the Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation, a solar array was recently installed on the roof of the building.
The total for the project was $105,680. The Dennis and Phyllis Washington Foundation provided a $75,000 challenge grant that was critical in incentivizing additional philanthropic giving, said Conservancy Director Doug Mitchell. Solar Plexus, a company located in Missoula, helped with the implementation of the project.

The solar energy system, provided by Everybody Solar, is projected to prevent the release of 37.9 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere in its first year and reduce the park’s overall operating costs, according to a news release.

Everybody Solar has installed 34.56 kW of rooftop solar on Glacier National Park (GNP)’s headquarters in Columbia Falls, Montana. Glacier National Park Conservancy, the official non-profit fundraising partner of GNP, helped make the project a reality.
“Bringing solar energy to the headquarters will be Glacier National Park’s largest energy project to date,” said Jim Foster, GNP chief facility manager, “this project will show the public we mean business when it comes to sustainable practices.”
Next time you’re in West Glacier, you may notice a recent upgrade at Glacier National Park’s Headquarters building: a brand new rooftop solar system. The headquarters building is the hub of Glacier’s operations, housing park leadership offices and providing year-round visitor information.
As Glacier expands its commitment to renewable energy and a more sustainable future, adding solar panels to the park headquarters building is a huge step forward. This project will take the headquarters building off the grid, freeing up those resources for other critical park needs. (special note: Actual system size is 34.56 kW, not 44.66 kW.
