BENTONVILLE, Ark., Sept. 20 (UPI) -- As many as 30 Walmart stores in California and Arizona will be outfitted with solar panels, many using a new thin film technology, the retailer said Monday.
The solar panels are expected to produce 20 percent to 30 percent of each location's electrical power, producing 22.5 million kilowatt hours of power, "enough to power more than 1,750 homes annually," the company said in a statement.
