Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.
The picture above is Apple's new California Flats solar farm.
It helps power Apple's corporate headquarters, along with solar power installed on the roof of Apple Park.
100% Renewable Energy
Until March 2021, there are over 110 of Apple's manufacturing partners around the world are moving to 100 percent renewable energy for their Apple production, with nearly 8 gigawatts of planned clean energy set to come online.
15,000,000 tons of CO2 Emission
Once completed, these commitments will avoid over 15 million metric tons of CO2e annually — the equivalent of taking more than 3.4 million cars off the road each year.
“We are firmly committed to helping our suppliers become carbon neutral by 2030 and are thrilled that companies who’ve joined us span industries and countries around the world, including Germany, China, the US, India, and France,”
Lisa Jackson
Apple’s vice president for Environment, Policy, and Social Initiatives.
Plan by 2030
In July 2020, the company unveiled its plan to become carbon neutral across its entire business, manufacturing supply chain, and product life cycle by 2030. Since that announcement, Apple has significantly increased the number of its suppliers that are transitioning to renewable energy.
Here comes a question . . .
Where should we store these power?
Apple is constructing one of the largest battery projects in the country, California Flats — an industry-leading, grid-scale energy storage project capable of storing 240 megawatt-hours of energy, enough to power over 7,000 homes for one day.
This project supports the company’s 130-megawatt solar farm that provides all of its renewable energy in California, by storing excess energy generated during the day and deploying it when it is most needed.
Apple is constructing energy storage projects — like the future site at California Flats — which retain generated clean energy from intermittent sources, including wind and solar.
Apple’s spend $4.7 billion on Green Bond?
