50 More For Kohl

Last Monday, Kohl Corporation, a company of department stores based in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, had announced their plans of expanding their solar program. They are looking at plans of using solar power to more of their stores. In fact, Kohl has announced that they would like to bring the current number up to over 50 more of their stores in the East Coast.

Right now, the company already has put in solar panels in some of their stores and offices in Maryland, Connecticut and New Jersey. The work had started last January and they are already going to start working on the second batch of stores to receive solar panels. Those stores with solar panels would be using only 20% energy from the grid. The rest would be coming from the power of the sun.

If more and more department store chains would be using solar panels, then this sure is going to be a really solar world.
