Daca acum doi ani de zile activisti ai Greenpeace protestau impotriva modului in care foloseste Apple energie electrica in centrele sale de date, anul acesta Greenpeace lauda Apple pentru protejarea planetei. Intr-un nou raport privind energia regenerabila, Greenpeace sustine ca Apple, Google si Facebook sunt inovatori ai energiei regenerabile, Apple primind trei note A si o nota B in clasamentul privind modalitatile prin care se obtine energia regenerabila pentru centrele sale de date.
Apple’s aggressive pursuit of its commitment to power the iCloud with 100% renewable energy has given the company the inside track among the IT sector’s leaders in building a green Internet. Apple has made good on its pledge by building the largest privately owned solar farms at its North Carolina data center, working with its utility in Nevada to power its upcoming data center there with solar and geothermal energy, and purchasing wind energy for its Oregon and California data centers.
Conform Greenpeace, Apple foloseste energie regenerabila pentru a furniza intreagul necesar de energie electrica al centrelor de date iCloud, energiile solara, eoliana si geotermala fiind folosite in cele 4 centre de date ale companiei americane. Apple este laudata si pentru modul transparent in care prezinta date privind obtinerea energiei regenerabile pentru centrele sale de date, Tim Cook fiind principalul sustinator al utilizarii acestui tip de energie in cladirile Apple.
Per total, 86% din energia electrica utilizata de catre Apple pentru cladirile sale este regenerabila, cei din Cupertino sperand sa ajunga la un procent de 100% in anii urmatori.
