Technology giant Google has announced a pledge to transition towards 100% renewable energy for its operations by the year 2030, a pledge which seems to be an extraordinary one for a company operating on a massive scale as Google’s. The company says it’ll work towards this goal beginning with all-round clean energy for all of its data centers and campuses around the globe. Google points out that costs for wind and solar power declined by 70% and 89% between 2009-2019 as a case that’ll make it easier for the company to transition towards 100% renewable energy. It’s such that the company has published a 27-page whitepaper as regards its transition plan.
According to Google, its clean energy jobs will help create 12,000 additional jobs between now and 2025. As part of its efforts, Google will work together with more than 500 cities and local governments globally to help reduce carbon emissions. The video embedded below sheds more light on Google’s plan, as narrated by the company’s CEO Sundar Pichai;
