The Cupertino guys have just launched a new clean energy fund in China, in which there are a total of ten suppliers that would invest nearly $ 300 million over the next four years to develop solutions for climate change in the country, the so-called Clean Energy Fund.
The fund will invest in and develop clean energy projects that will produce more than one gigawatt of renewable energy in China, the equivalent of the consumption of nearly one million households. The news complements Apple's announcement this year that its global facilities use only clean energy and the launch of its Clean Energy program for suppliers in 2015. Since the start of the program, 23 manufacturing partners, operating in more than 10 different countries, have committed to using only clean energy in all their production. for the company of the bitten apple.
Lisa Jackson, Apple Vice President of Environmental, Social and Policy Initiatives, It takes heart from the new agreement with suppliers and it is no wonder since it costs a lot to close this type of agreement in a country like China, this is part of a project that will continue to evolve for many years and Apple is committed to it:
At Apple, we are proud to partner with companies that are stepping up to address the climate challenge. We are excited that such a large number of our suppliers are participating in the fund and we hope this model can be replicated globally to help companies of all sizes make a substantial positive impact on our planet.
