Apple Inc. becomes largest U.S. solar enterprise user

     Amazon, which topped the list last year, is now in second place. Because of its AWS business, Amazon is strictly a technology company, but counted as a retailer in this survey. Amazon's total solar power capacity is 329.8 MW, and the third-ranked company is Target, with a total solar power capacity of 242.4 MW.

    SEIA President and CEO Abigail Ross Hopper said in a statement: "Top companies are increasingly investing in clean, reliable solar because it makes economic sense. Corporate solar investments will become even more important because Businesses use solar energy to combat climate change, create jobs and boost the local economy. "

    Apple announced in 2018 that its entire global operation is powered by 100% renewable energy, and a 130 MW off-site project launched in California to power Apple headquarters. Apple Headquarters, Apple Park, is also installing solar panels on the top of the building.
