As the world continues to require more sustainable options to thrive, our communities and the businesses that rely on our support are beginning to take action for a renewable future. One of the largest retailers in the US, particularly in California, Target, is setting green energy goals. They aim "to source 100% of its energy from renewable options by 2030 and plans to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2040." Their actions align with their objectives as well. Target has initiated a solar panel project for their Vista, CA store location. In the parking lot, massive carports topped with solar panels will power the store in California. These panels, positioned high above the parking lot, will generate enough renewable energy to sustain the entire store, from refrigeration to heating and air conditioning. Previously, the store had solar panels installed only on the rooftop, but in an endeavor to potentially achieve 100% dependence on renewable energy, they added the carport solar panels. The new solar panels make this Target location the company's first net-zero energy store. The chain anticipates the solar panels to produce 10% more energy than the store requires, which will be returned to the local power grid. Solar energy is an excellent resource for running a store sustainably, and it greatly benefits the community when the surplus energy produced by this Target is fed back into the power grid for others to utilize in a renewable future.
