Apple is expanding renewable energy projects across Europe with new large-scale solar and wind farms now in development in Greece, Italy, Latvia, Poland, and Romania.
Together with a newly operational solar array in Spain, the projects will add 650MW of renewable energy capacity and generate over one million MWh of clean electricity by 2030.
The projects represent part of Apple’s 2030 goal to be carbon neutral across its entire footprint by the end of the decade. By then, Apple plans to match 100 per cent of global customer electricity use with clean electricity by bringing new wind and solar power online around the world.
“By 2030, we want our users to know that all the energy it takes to charge their iPhone or power their Mac is matched with clean electricity,” said Lisa Jackson, Apple’s VP of environment, policy, and social initiatives. “Our new projects in Europe will help us achieve our ambitious Apple 2030 goal, while contributing to healthy communities, thriving economies, and secure energy sources across the continent.”
The energy used to charge and power Apple devices accounted for about 29 per cent of Apple’s overall greenhouse gas emissions in 2024.
In addition to investments for product use, Apple and its suppliers support over 19GW of renewable used to power the company’s global corporate operations and manufacturing supply chain.
