Apple shares manufacturing capacity at Chinese companies FoxConn and Pegatron with other companies. If Apple uses 20% of their manufacturing capacity, and company B, C, D, and E also each take up 20%, and the company doing the manufacturing runs on 20% renewably generated energy, now Apple as well as companies B, C, D, and E will each publicly claim that their manufacturing runs 100% on renewable energy.
