Hi there, thanks for the comment!

Our renewables strategy is to identify and evaluate potential projects in the following order: onsite power opportunities, green power contracts with utilities, offsite power opportunities, and Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). We prefer to do onsite power projects where possible, but in many cases, offsite power is the better option due to factors such as location, budget, and space constraints.

At this time, putting solar on our buildings in San Jose is not economically feasible - however, we did open a new 20 MW solar power facility in Southern California which you can read about here: https://blogs.cisco.com/csr/cisco-opens-new-solar-facility-to-power-san-jose-campus.

FYI, this system is far larger than what we could install on every building in our SJC campus!
