According to Apple, its manufacturing partners now support over 13 gigawatts of renewable electricity around the world, while more than 250 Apple suppliers are committed to relying completely on renewable energy by 2030.
In a press release today, Apple gave an update on its efforts to go fully carbon neutral by 2030. For its global corporate emissions, Apple is already carbon neutral. It supports 1.5 gigawatts of renewable electricity around the world to power all corporate offices, data centers, and retail stores. It has also invested in 500 megawatts of solar and wind in China and Japan to address upstream supply chain emissions.
Apple’s efforts are now largely focused on its supply chain and manufacturing partners. Apple says that more than 40 of its manufacturing partners have joined the Apple Supplier Clean Energy Program within the last year, making for a total of over 250 suppliers across 28 countries.
