Three additional Apple suppliers, including Compal Electronics, Sunwoda Electronic, and Biel Crystal Manufactory, have promised to use 100 percent renewable energy when manufacturing iPhone components, Apple VP of Environment, Policy, and Social Initiatives Lisa Jackson told Bloomberg (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-04-13/apple-says-three-suppliers-to-use-solely-renewable-power) in an interview.
96 percent of the energy Apple uses comes from renewable sources like wind and solar, allowing the company to reduce its carbon footprint, and in 26 countries, Apple facilities are powered with 100 percent renewable energy. With much of its own company using renewable energy, Apple has started focusing on its suppliers to further its sustainability efforts.

"All that's included in our 96 percent, but **w we're moving onto our supply chain."Late last month, Apple promised to ho**r the commitment (https://www.macrumors.com/2017/03/31/apple-commitment-obama-climate-pledge/) it made under the Obama administration to fight climate change, and today, Jackson said Apple plans to continue on its path and make its values k**wn to the Trump administration, which has started to rescind environmental rules and protections."One thing this administration has made clear is that they want to hear from business and so we're going to do everything we can to make our values k**wn," Jackson said.Along with Compal Electronics, Sunwoda Electronic, and Biel Crystal Manufactory, four other suppliers have committed to using clean energy: Lens Tech**logy (https://www.macrumors.com/2016/08/17/lens-tech**logy-renewable-energy-apple/), Solvay Specialty Polymers, Catcher Tech**logy (https://www.macrumors.com/2016/09/19/apple-joins-energy-initiative-re100/), and Ibiden (https://www.macrumors.com/2017/03/08/apple-supplier-ibiden-100-percent-renewable-energy/). In March, Apple said (https://www.macrumors.com/2017/03/08/apple-supplier-ibiden-100-percent-renewable-energy/) that by the end of 2018, the company and its supplier partners expect to generate more than 2.5 billion kilowatt hours of clean energy per year.
