HiRes

Every year, America’s tech corporations implement more and more eco-responsible ways of doing business. And for many companies, practicing green has become a way of life.

Recently, Bloomberg conducted a survey to find out which major tech corporations are the “greenest.” Here are their findings and the top 10 green technology companies in the U.S.

#10 – Dell Inc.

Dell is one of the country’s largest computer manufacturers and 47.9% of the power it uses annually comes from green resources like biogas, solar, and wind. Of all the tech companies on the list, Dell utilizes the highest amount of eco-friendly power purchased from utility providers as the computer giant produces just a tenth of its energy on-site.

#9 – Advanced Micro Devices Inc.

Of all the energy used by Advanced Micro Devices Inc. over the course of a year, a little over half of it comes from renewable air power generated by wind turbines. Advanced Micro Devices Inc. purchases just over 79% of its green energy from utility products.

#8 – Microsoft Corp.

Microsoft generates 79.7% of its green energy from resources like solar, wind, small-hydro, and biomass, but none of it is created on-site. One hundred percent of the company’s green power comes from Renewable Energy Certificates.

#7 – Apple Inc.

Apple generates 18.9% of its own energy on-site using solar farms, but 85.3% of its entire green energy comes from off-site biomass, biogas, solar, geothermal, wind, and small-hydro providers.
