Alternator/Battery Light S70 1998

I have a S70 T5 (130K miles) with an unusual problem. Just recently, the battery light comes on under full acceleration only. When accelerating slowly, it remains off. I just installed a NEW battery (old one was about 4 years anyway), and the problem remains. Could the alternator be "going bad"? Anyone heard of this type of problem? Thoughts? If I need to get a new alternator, any suggestions? PepBoys have an alternator for this car?

Thanks. Jim B.
