The onsite PV system 8 Carbon emissions equivalences calculated using 2021 data from 100 percent renewable since January 2013 our data center and other Apple facilities in California. 100 percent renewable since opening March 2017 10 began commercial operation in February 2019 and the U.S. Energy Information Administration: www.eia.gov/electricity/ generates approximately 8, 000 M Wh per year. sales_revenue_price/pdf/table5_a.pdf . Our data center in Newark, California, is powered by Our global command data center in Mesa, Arizona, came 9 Emissions avoided are calculated using the GHG Protocol 100 percent renewable energy. We hit this milestone in In 2022, the Newark data center was supported by online in 2016. To support this facility, we partnered with methodology for calculating market-based emissions. January 2013, when we began serving the data center projects that generated 20 m illion kWh of renewable the local utility, the Salt River Project (SRP), to build the In addition, we began working with SRP to develop a 10 Apple took operational control of the building in October 2015 and energy, which is equivalent to the energy used by nearly customer renewable energy program in 2017, resulting converted it to a data center that began servicing customers in with energy sourced primarily from California wind power. 50-megawatt Bonnybrooke solar project, which became March 2 0 1 7. We acquired this energy directly from the wholesale 10,000 homes in California for a year. 8 Use of renewable operational in December 2016. This project produces in their Sustainable Energy Offering, which launched in 11 Carbon emissions equivalences calculated using 2021 data from market through California’s Direct Access program. In energy allowed us to avoid more than 804 m etric tons of over 148 million kWh of clean, renewable energy a 2019, to provide a diverse mix of commercial electric the U.S. Energy Information Administration: www.eia.gov/electricity/ sales_revenue_price/pdf/table5_a.pdf . 2017, Apple’s 130-megawatt California Flats solar project CO 2 e during the fiscal year. 9 year, which roughly matches the energy used by the customers with new renewable energy at an affordable 12 Emissions avoided are calculated using the GHG Protocol in nearby Monterey County came online, and now we use data center. price. Under this program, Apple has executed an methodology for calculating market-based emissions. agreement with SRP to purchase a portion of the output As the Mesa data center grew, it became apparent that of their 100 M W Central Line PV facility. The project we needed additional sources of renewable energy to became operational in April 2022. maintain our 100 percent renewable electricity goal. In 2022, the Mesa data center was supported by We began to explore onsite solar options at the data 379 m illion kWh of renewable energy, which is equivalent center and determined that we could provide valuable to the energy used by over 10,000 Arizona homes. 11 shaded parking that paid for itself through energy bill Use of renewable energy allowed us to avoid more than reductions while adding to our renewable energy portfolio. 158, 000 m etric tons of CO 2 e during the fiscal year. 12 The resulting PV facility includes five elevated parking canopies and three ground-mounted arrays, for a total Newark, California: Grid mix versus Apple-sourced renewable energy Mesa, Arizona: Grid mix versus Apple-sourced renewable energy Electricity use in 2022: 20 m illion kWh Electricity use in 2022: 379 m illion kWh Default grid mix (California) % Apple actual renewable energy allocation % Default grid mix (Arizona) % Apple actual renewable energy allocation % Coal
