Another three Apple Inc. suppliers committed to using solely renewable energy to manufacture components for the iPhone maker.

Compal Electronics Inc., Sunwoda Electronic Co. and Biel Crystal Manufactory Ltd. have made the pledge, bringing the total number of Apple suppliers seeking to use just renewable power to seven, executive Lisa Jackson said in an interview. Apple itself now gets 96 percent of its energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar, according to Jackson, Apple's vice president in charge of sustainability and government affairs.
