This is a really interesting idea for businesses with large rooftops. Just perfect for them.

Kohl’s is converting 24 of their 80 stores in California immediately, and trying to get permits to convert 40 more. They have contracted with Sun Edison to help them with the conversion.

I wonder if other companies will follow suit, especially as Kohl’s reports their results. It’s an investment that should save them a nice amount of money over time, not to mention the great PR among those who consider a company’s treatment of the environment.
