In a statement on Sunday, a Singaporean solar energy provider announced its landmark agreement with iPhone maker Apple to power its Southeast Asia operations, including its retail store, with solar energy, ZDNet reports.
Sunseap said that it has since installed solar energy systems over 800 buildings in Singapore to complement Apple and its other customers’ power requirements.
“This arrangement, which is in line with Apple's goal to power all of its facilities around the world with 100 percent renewable energy, is the first of its kind in Southeast Asia," the company said.
Apple has since confirmed to TechCrunch that it will open a retail store in Singapore. The retail store is said to be Apple’s strategy to capitalize on its growing market share in the region. Although there has been no confirmation on where and when the retail store will be opened, it has been speculated that it will be stationed at a retail space in Orchard Road, the country’s main shopping hotspot.
