Additionally, there are two wind turbines installed at our Findlay, Ohio distribution center. The solar trees and wind turbines are a visible statement of our commitment to energy efficiency. In 2007, Kohl’s started out with about 38,000 solar panels on the rooftops of 19 California stores. We currently host 162 rooftop solar arrays around the country, totaling more than 200,000 solar panels, including three large solar trees at Kohl’s corporate headquarters. This year, Kohl’s is launching a program to equip 15 of our rooftops across Arizona and Illinois with solar arrays within the next year. The 15 new projects will increase Kohl’s Installed Solar Capacity by 10.4%, to a total of 56.97 MW. The company is also contracting to support the development of 23.4 MW of community solar projects across New York in 2022. Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) We also maintain a commitment to renewable energy use through the purchase and production of renewable energy credits (RECs). In 2021, we secured RECs totaling approximately 85,278 megawatt-hours (MWh), including 24,278 MWh from our on-site solar arrays, where we retain or own the RECs. These RECs resulted in the offset of 28,212 metric tons of carbon. Environmental Sustainability 15 2021 ESG REPORT Renewable Energy With over 50 megawatts (MW) of solar energy installed, we are among the leading retailers increasingly turning to solar to power operations. GOAL Expand renewable energy platforms by building off the company’s existing 161 solar and wind locations. Using renewable clean energy mitigates risks to the planet and our communities while conserving natural resources. We continue to explore renewable energy projects both on and off-site. EPA Green Power Partner Illustrating our commitment to leveraging renewable energy resources and technologies that provide the highest environmental benefit, we have been an active member of EPA’s Green Power Partnership since 2006 and have been named on EPA’s Green Power Top 30 Retail list since 2014. We are also proud to be ranked as one of the Top 25 Corporate Users by Solar Energy Industries Association® (SEIA) for our continued prioritization of onsite solar installations. Solar and Wind In 2021, an estimated 58,732 megawatt-hours (MWh) of solar energy was used, meaning more than 6% of the electricity we used to power our business came from renewable sources. Many of our stores get up to 50% of their energy from solar. We currently host 164 solar arrays around the country, totaling more than 200,000 solar panels and nine solar trees. Solar trees are designed to track the sun and rotate throughout the day, allowing each solar tree to potentially generate between 25-35 megawatt-hours of power annually. They are equipped with EV charging stations, and one solar tree can generate enough power to charge six electric vehicles daily. Each solar tree shades six parking spaces, providing shade-cooled parking spots for associates and guests. IN 2021, AN ESTIMATED 58,732 MWH OF SOLAR ENERGY WAS USED.
