Apple is bolstering its renewable energy investments across Europe with large-scale solar and wind projects in Greece, Italy, Latvia, Poland, Romania and a newly operational solar array in Spain. These combined initiatives collectively add 650MW of renewable energy capacity to European power grids and US$ 600 million in financing.
In a press release, Apple said that the projects are expected to generate over 1 million megawatt-hours of clean electricity annually when completed, in line with Apple’s goal to become carbon neutral by 2030. As per Apple’s Environmental Progress Report 2025, it had used 2.5 billion kWh of power over 2024 to power its data center and colocation facilities. According to Apple, 100 percent of the energy used to power eight operational data centers across North America, Europe, and Asia, was derived from renewable sources of energy, including solar, wind, biogas, and hydropower.
Lisa Jackaon, president of Environment, Policy, and Social Initiatives, Apple said, “By 2030, we want our users to know that all the energy it takes to charge their iPhone or power their Mac is matched with clean electricity. Our new projects in Europe will help us achieve our ambitious Apple 2030 goal while contributing to healthy communities, thriving economies, and secure energy sources across the continent.”
The new developments in each country are centered by Apple establishing power purchase agreements (PPA) with local electricity providers to supply adequate renewable energy across Europe.
In the Mediterranean region, Greece hosts a 110MW solar farm operated by HELLENiQ ENERGY to support renewable transitions. A 129MW portfolio of solar and wind projects are being developed in Italy with the first solar facility in Sicily expected to become operational soon. The 131MW Castaño solar array in Segovia, Spain began operations in early 2025.
Apple’s renewable energy projects in Eastern and Central Europe include Econergy’s 40MW solar array in Poland which will begin operations later this year. Through a long-term agreement with Nala Renewables, Apple will source power from a 99MW wind farm in Galați County,Romania. Apple has signed one of Latvia’s first corporate power purchase agreements with European Energy to secure electricity from a 110MW solar farm.
Apple’s European projects are expected to add around 3,000 gigawatt-hours of clean power to the continent’s grids annually by 2030. Globally, Apple and its suppliers support 19GW of renewable energy, powering corporate operations and manufacturing in a major step towards a fully carbon-neutral future.
