I-Apple iyinombolo yokuqala kumandla elanga. Ikhiqiza futhi idle kakhulu kuzo zonke izinkampani zaseMelika

I-Apple ivele njengomsebenzisi omkhulu waseMelika wamandla elanga, ngokusho kwedatha esanda kukhishwa. Lokhu kungokocwaningo lweSolar Energy Industries Association. Kuzo zonke izinkampani zaseMelika, i-Apple inakho kokubili umthamo omkhulu wokukhiqiza kanye nokusetshenziswa okuphezulu kwamandla elanga.

Eminyakeni yamuva, izinkampani ezinkulu zaseMelika bezilokhu zisebenzisa amandla elanga ukuze zinike amandla indlunkulu yazo. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukukhiqiza noma izakhiwo zamahhovisi ezivamile. Umholi kule ndlela yi-Apple, esebenzisa amandla avela emithonjeni evuselelekayo kuphela, iningi layo elivela kumandla elanga, kuwo wonke amakomkhulu ayo aseMelika.

Kusukela ngo-2018, i-Apple ihole izinga lezinkampani maqondana nomthamo omkhulu wokukhiqiza kagesi. Eduze ngemuva kukhona ezinye iziqhwaga ezifana ne-Amazon, i-Walmart, i-Target noma i-Switch.

I-Apple kubikwa ukuthi inamandla okukhiqiza afinyelela ku-400 MW kuzo zonke izindawo zayo e-United States. Amandla elanga, noma izinsiza ezivuselelekayo ngokujwayelekile zinenzuzo ezinkampanini ezinkulu ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, njengoba ukusetshenziswa kwazo kusiza ukunciphisa izindleko zokusebenza, noma ngabe ukutshalwa kwezimali kokuqala kungaphansi. Bheka nje uphahla lwe-Apple Park, olumbozwe cishe ngamaphaneli elanga. I-Apple ikhiqiza ugesi omningi ngonyaka kangangokuthi ingashaja ama-smartphones angaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingu-60.

Ungabona lapho izikhungo ze-solar ze-Apple zitholakala kumephu engenhla. I-Apple ikhiqiza ugesi omningi emisebeni yelanga eCalifornia, ilandelwa yi-Oregon, Nevada, Arizona neNorth Carolina.

Ngonyaka odlule, i-Apple yaqhosha ngokufinyelela ingqopha-mlando lapho inkampani iphumelela ukunika amandla wonke amakomkhulu ayo emhlabeni wonke ngosizo lwamandla avuselelekayo. Inkampani izama ukunakekela indawo ezungezile, ngisho noma ezinye zezenzo zayo zingakubonisi kahle lokhu (isibonelo, ukungalungiseki kwamanye amadivaysi, noma ukungaphinde kusetshenziswe amanye). Isibonelo, uhlelo lwelanga ophahleni lwe-Apple Park lunamandla okukhiqiza angu-17 MW, ahlanganiswe nezitshalo ze-biogas ezinamandla okukhiqiza angu-4 MW. Ngokusebenza emithonjeni evuselelekayo, i-Apple minyaka yonke "yonga" ngaphezu kwe-2,1 million cubic metres ye-CO2 ebingadedelwa emkhathini.
