Auszüge: "The retail giant recently issued an RFP, or request for proposal, to install solar energy systems on its stores in five states -- the largest procurement of solar ever proposed.....Wal-Mart intends to notify the winner of the contract on February 28. (Also morgen) Einer von mehreren Anbietern ist First Solar (FSLR)

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) Thursday confirmed that it is seeking solar-panel suppliers to equip its more than 3,900 stores with renewable energy.
The Bentonville, Ark., company - the world's largest retailer - said it issued a request for proposals last month to suppliers. The company said in 2005 it intends to eliminate about 20% of its stores' greenhouse emissions over the next seven years, and wants to eventually be 100% supplied by renewable energy.
Details of the solar-panel request weren't immediately available. The news was first reported on CNET News.com. The request is a positive signal for the industry, but comes at a time when solar-panel makers are in the midst of a shortage of the building block material, silicon. "(The proposal) could be a very exciting poster child for the solar space, but the industry is not prepared for such a demand," Ardour Capital Investments analyst Walter Nasdeo said, adding that Wal-Mart doesn't do anything on a small scale. New silicon facilities will come on line in 2008 and 2009 and that will help with manufacturing capacity, Nasdeo said.
