Run by the Sun
Green Retailing
At Kohl’s department stores, it’s not just what’s on the racks that matters: It’s also about what’s on the roof.
The company, recipient of the EPA’s Green Power Leadership Award and ranked No. 2 on the agency’s list of top retail purchasers of renewable energy, is the world’s largest retail host of solar power. As of this fall, the Kohl’s solar program included panel systems in place on 60 store rooftops, with 20 more in various stages of construction. And that’s only the beginning of what Kohl’s hopes to accomplish.
