The panels, high above the parking lot, will produce enough renewable energy to power the entire store, from its refrigeration to its heating and air conditioning.
Conlin, who oversees store remodelings and build-outs of new facilities, said the features could eventually be added to other locations in the chain. The company currently maintains solar panels on roughly 25% of its approximately 1,900 stores.
At the Vista store, Conlin said, customers will see explanations about behind-the-scenes green features that will inform them about the company's switch to the natural refrigerant. Environmental advocacy organizations have urged big-box and grocery stores to add more solar panels to their locations, saying the companies could dramatically expand the country's supply of renewable energy because of their massive square footage.
