Since 2016, Intel Ireland has bought all of its power from its key supplier, Electric Ireland.
Intel Ireland General Manager Eamonn Sinnott said: "We are very proud to be announcing today that 100 per cent of all electricity supplied to our Leixlip campus is now purchased as renewable power from Electric Ireland. We are doing this as part of our multi-faceted approach to environmental awareness and as part of Intel's commitment to being a global energy sustainability champion.
"We hope that our decision to go green will help to further stimulate the renewable energy market and encourage other businesses to follow suit. The more participation in the green power market and the more additional capacity that can come on stream will ultimately further help the environment and help to lower costs."
