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 golf courses and car washes, 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.
The cloud—powered by data centers—enables everything from emergency 911 dispatch and storing medical records to streaming your favorite shows. And as AI continues to evolve, it will help solve some of humanity's greatest challenges, much like personal computers and the internet did before it. Our data centers are the foundation making that possible.
To reach our Climate Pledge of net-zero carbon by 2040, we are investing, innovating and driving new solutions that we 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 packages to customers faster and carbon-free—transforming our transportation network with electric delivery vans and e-cargo delivery options that are redefining what last-mile delivery looks like.
