The investment reflects Apple Inc.'s goal to achieve carbon neutrality across its entire carbon footprint by 2030, with over 95 percent of its direct manufacturing in China now running on renewable energy. The fund's size has roughly doubled since the initial $100 million anchor investment last year.
