Eco Factor: Sustainable facilities and state-of-the-art data center to help reduce carbon emissions.
eBay has announced its first greenhouse gas emissions reduction project, which will help the company reduce over 15% emissions by 2012. The target will be achieved through an ongoing commitment to energy efficiency and conservation.
The project will also involve investments in renewable energy and promoting sustainable activities among the company’s global workforce of 15,000 employees. The company will also be coming up with a state-of-the-art green data center that will house more than a third of the global data infrastructure.
eBay is also installing a new 100KW solar installation at the company’s office in Denver, Colorado. Another renewable energy strategy that will involve the use of fuel cells is also underway.
