Our translator station serving St. Francis and Cheyenne County at 96.3 FM is off the air due to an air conditioning breakdown at its leased transmitter site, making it too hot for HPPR's equipment to operate. We are currently working to fix the situation. We apologize for the loss of service and ask listeners to tune to KZNK at 90.1 FM or listen on line through the player above or HPPR's mobile app.

Where Do HPPR States Rank When It Comes To Energy Efficiency?

Wallethub

The average American family spends $2,000 per year on energy. But some states are far more energy efficient than others. The personal finance website Wallethub set out to discover which states are doing more with less energy.

Among High Plains states, only Colorado put in a good showing in the rankings. The Centennial State landed at number nine among all states when it comes to energy efficiency. None of the other states in the HPPR listening region made the top half of the list. Kansas landed at number 29, while Nebraska was number 32, and Texas and Oklahoma fell at numbers 37 and 38, respectively.

New York and Vermont were found to be the most energy efficient states in the U.S., while Louisiana and South Carolina are the least frugal with energy.
