Amazon is expanding its renewable energy investments with 71 new renewable energy projects around the world including its first renewable energy project in South America -a solar farm in Brazil- and its first solar farms in India and Poland.
“Once fully operational, Amazon’s global renewable energy portfolio will generate 50,000 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of clean energy, which is the equivalent amount of electricity needed to power 4.6 million U.S. homes each year,” says an official release.
Adam Selipsky, CEO, Amazon Web Services says: “We are bringing new wind and solar projects online to power our offices, fulfillment centers, data centers, and stores, which collectively serve millions of customers globally, and we are on a path to reach 100% renewable energy across our entire business by 2025. Around the world, countries are looking to accelerate the transition to a clean energy economy, and continued investments like ours can help accelerate their journey as we all work together to mitigate the impacts of climate change.”
