Apple to run all Singapore operations on solar energy, first retail store launching shortlyAfter significant expansion into China over the course of the year, Apple has confirmed that it will open its first retail store in Singapore. Also notable is the fact that all operations in the country will be powered by renewable energy, extending Apple's bid to power all of its facilities worldwide with clean energy.
