Amazon claims breakthrough with ‘100pc’ renewable energy target reached for data centres
Amazon claims that it “matched” its operations’ entire electricity consumption with renewable energy last year.

“All of the electricity consumed by Amazon’s operations, including its data centres, was matched with 100pc renewable energy in 2023,”
