The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has compiled a list of the U.S. K-12 school systems that are the largest users of green power among those who take part in the agency's Green Power Partnership.

The latest list of green K-12 schools, released in January, placed the Tucson Unified District at the top of the list as the largest user of green power
