Apple's data centers, its Infinite Loop in Cupertino and its Austin, Elk Grove, Cork and Munich campuses now operate with a 100% from renewable sources<\/strong>. Or at least that is what your annual environmental report ensures\u00a0"Apple and the Environment"<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Apple-data-center-tick-macworld-australia\"This means that the\u00a075% of total power required by your corporate facilities around the world<\/strong>, including data centers for online services, central offices but also other buildings,\u00a0comes from elements such as the sun, wind, hydroelectric and geothermal sources<\/strong>. In comparison, three years ago only 35% of its energy needs were covered in a "green" and environmentally friendly way.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ultimate goal, of course, is to end up relying exclusively on renewable sources and Apple\u00a0assures<\/a>\u00a0that "will not stop until they get it."<\/span><\/p>\n

Currently, the Californian company has data centers in\u00a0Maiden<\/strong>\u00a0(North Carolina) and\u00a0Newark<\/strong>(California) and is building an additional one in\u00a0Prineville<\/strong>\u00a0(Oregon) and expanding its presence in\u00a0Reindeer<\/strong>(Nevada). Of all of them, the jewel in the crown is undoubtedly the Maiden center, which has been operating cleanly since last December and has a solar panel system that the firm of the bitten apple announces as the largest of his class in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

And among the advances of the last year, the\u00a0combination of bio-gas batteries with photovoltaic technology<\/strong>\u00a0at its headquarters and\u00a0greening of some of its products<\/strong>, like the new iMac that uses a 68% less materials than the previous model or the AirPort Express wireless router based on biopolymers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, during 2012\u00a0have increased their greenhouse gas emissions<\/a>\u00a0up to 30.9 million metric tons<\/strong>, which means an increase of 34% compared to what was expected by the company itself in 2011. This\u00a0it is mainly due to the increase in gadget sales<\/strong>\u00a0Manzana.<\/span><\/p>\n
