Thank you, Mr. Air, a netizen of CTOnews.com, for your clue delivery! CTOnews.com, April 5 (Xinhua)-- Apple announced today that it is working with global suppliers to promote renewable power, with 68 Chinese production partners committed to using renewable energy by 2030, an increase of about 24 percent over last year. According to reports, the company's production partners currently support more than 13 gigawatts of clean energy around the world.

Tuyuan Pexels has more than 250 suppliers around the world committed to join Apple's supplier clean energy program, accounting for more than 85% of the company's direct production expenditure. So far, 13.7 gigawatts of clean energy have been put into use in Apple's global supply chain.

Apple has called on suppliers to decarbonize all Apple-related operations, including the use of 100 per cent renewable electricity. In China, companies have begun to use the country's new green power trading system, a dynamic system that will enable companies to buy certified clean energy solutions multiple times a year.

"at Apple, our own operations are carbon neutral and we are innovating every day to go further in the urgent work of tackling climate change," Apple CEO Tim Cook said. "together with partners around the world, we are adding more renewable energy to power our global supply chain and invest in the next generation of green technologies. The scale of this challenge is enormous, but so is our determination to meet it. "

Apple's global corporate operations have achieved carbon neutrality and are committed to innovative ways to accelerate progress towards the ambitious 2030 goal of making every product carbon neutral. This includes $4.7 billion in green bonds, which is helping to promote clean energy solutions and emission reduction solutions around the world through investment.

In addition, Apple today announced details of its 2022 green bond investments, including investments in large solar projects, low-carbon designs, energy efficiency and carbon removal.

(CTOnews.com Science Popularization: "Green Bond" refers to a bond instrument that uses the proceeds to finance or refinance green projects that meet the prescribed conditions.)

Apple has used some of the proceeds from 2019 green bonds to support China's clean energy fund. The industry's first investment fund helps Chinese suppliers gain access to renewable energy. Thanks to this innovative approach, Apple and its suppliers have jointly invested in more than 650MW of renewable power to date.
