Apple has 25 renewable energy projects around the world. These projects have a diverse range of power sources, including solar arrays, wind farms. It even includes emerging green energy sources like biogas fuel cells.
Apple’s renewable energy projects include Apple Park, which is powered by renewable energy from multiple sources. That includes a 17-megawatt onsite rooftop solar installation. The building even gives clean energy to the public grid during periods of low use.

Apple also announced that nine more manufacturing partners have committed to power their production for Apple with clean energy. That brings the total number of supplier commitments to 23. These include companies like ECCO Leather, which produces leather for Apple, and Quanta Computer, a Mac supplier.
