One of the top U.S. corporate solar power installers, Target completed its 500th rooftop solar installation in California, appropriately enough considering that it is the #1 state in the country for solar power.
The solar installations helped Target add more than 240 megawatts of solar across their buildings. This equals the power needed for nearly 46,000 homes in the U.S. Target chose solar because it wants to meet energy needs in a way that is good for the communities where it operates and the environment while also reducing the cost of its energy. One rooftop solar installation generates enough energy to offset between 15% and 40% of one of Target’s property’s energy needs.
