Amazon pays for more energy than we use
How much water and electricity do our data centers really use? Data centers create new jobs, use significantly less water than the clothing and beef industries, and don't drive up electricity rates.
We are committed to protecting the environment, contributing to the fabric of communities, and building a better future for all.
Data centers have become an essential part of our daily lives. The cloud—powered by data centers—enable the modern world from emergency 911 dispatch and storing medical records to streaming shows and scrolling social media. As AI continues to develop, it will further transform how we work and live, much like personal computers or the internet did, and our data centers are building what this incredible innovation will provide.
To reach our Climate Pledge, we’ll invest, innovate and drive new solutions that can scale. We also believe that AI can be one of the climate movement’s most powerful tools, and we continue to leverage AI to help us use less materials, less water, and less energy while maintaining or improving our performance.
We’re investing billions of dollars in nuclear, SMRs, battery storage and renewable energy projects around the world that can help power our operations and strengthen everyone’s energy future. We’re the world’s largest corporate purchaser of renewable energy since 2020, and will continue to invest in carbon-free energy.
We’re focused on delivering customers packages fast and carbon-free by transforming our transportation network to include quiet and carbon-free electric delivery vans to bikes and e-cargo delivery options, and more.
