Hawaii’s Wal-Marts take green steps

Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the Bentonville, Ark., retail giant, is taking green steps, with many of those efforts being spearheaded in Hawaii.

Wal-Mart’s stores in Hawaii, for instance, will be part of a pilot solar project outfitting 22 Wal-Mart stores, Sam’s Club and a distribution center with solar power systems. The Sam’s Club on Keeaumoku Street already has 1,488 photovoltaic panels on its rooftop.
The Wal-Mart in Pearl City also has skylights, and a daylight harvesting system that automatically dims and turns off store light during periods of higher natural daylight.
