On April 21, nationwide retailer Macy’s announced that 21 high-efficiency SunPower solar arrays have gone live this year at its Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s locations in seven states, totaling 15 MW – and adding to the nearly 24 MW of SunPower solar that has been operating on its store and fulfillment center rooftops since 2007. Electricity generated by the new solar power systems ultimately will be sold to others.
About 70 percent of the 102 solar power systems in the Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s renewable energy portfolio feature SunPower’s high-efficiency technology. Nineteen of the 21 new systems use the SunPower Helix Roof product, a fully-integrated rooftop solar solution for commercial customers.
