Apple signs PPAs in Greece, Romania as part of drive to green its devices’ consumption

As part of efforts to ensure that all electricity consumed by Apple devices is matched with green energy, the United States–based tech giant is facilitating 650 MW of renewables projects across Europe, including through power purchase agreements (PPA). By 2030, wind and solar power plants in Spain, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Poland, and Romania are expected to generate over 1 TWh of clean electricity on behalf of Apple users, the company 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,” said Lisa Jackson, Apple’s vice president of environment, policy, and social initiatives.

In Greece, Apple has signed a long-term PPA to procure power from a 110 MW solar project owned by HELLENiQ Energy. The plant, which is already fully operational, is located in Kozani in northern Greece.

In Romania, the company plans to procure power from the 99 MW Green Breeze wind farm, under construction in Galați County, through a long-term virtual power purchase agreement (vPPA). The facility, which is scheduled to start operations in the first half of 2026, was initiated by Sweden-based OX2 and later sold to Nala Renewables.

In Italy, Apple is supporting the development of a 129 MW portfolio of solar and wind projects. The first of the facilities, a photovoltaic plant in Sicily, is expected to come online this month.

The project backed by Apple in Poland is for Econergy’s 40 MW solar array, which is expected to be operational later this year. In Latvia, the tech giant has signed one of the country’s first corporate PPAs. It will procure electricity from European Energy’s 110 MW solar power plant, set to be one of the largest in Latvia once completed.
