Amazon.com Inc. on Thursday unveiled plans for four more renewable-energy projects as the e-commerce giant works toward its goal of using 100% renewable energy by 2030.

The Seattle-based company said the wind and solar projects will provide nearly 300 megawatts of additional renewable capacity to the grids that supply energy to its Amazon Web Services data centers.

Amazon said its latest investment includes its first renewable energy project in Australia--a 60 magawatt solar facility expected to come online next year in northern New South Wales state.

The new projects also include a 122 megawatt onshore wind project in Sweden, a 50 megawatt solar farm in Spain, and a 65 megawatt U.S. solar project in Virginia.
