ByteDance, which owns short video app TikTok and recently forayed into cloud services, is one of the lowest ranked cloud providers in China, according to Greenpeace East Asia’s latest climate ranking of the country’s technology sector.

The company ranked seventh among nine cloud providers, as it is yet to announce carbon neutrality goals or disclose its energy usage data.
