Amazon Achieves 100% Renewable Energy Goal for 2023, Reports 3% Carbon Reduction
Jul 10, 2024, 03:45 PM
Amazon announced that it has achieved its goal of using 100% renewable energy for its global operations in 2023, seven years ahead of its original 2030 target. This milestone includes all electricity consumed by Amazon's data centers, corporate buildings, grocery stores, and fulfillment centers. The company invested in over 500 solar and wind projects to reach this goal. As a result, Amazon reported a 3% reduction in its carbon footprint. However, some experts have expressed skepticism regarding Amazon's calculations and claims. The New York Times reported on Wednesday that Amazon's achievement has been met with mixed reactions.
