I don't understand where do they take the electricity, but I suppose it could come completely from solar panels on the roof. Let's suppose they buy it locally. If my own electric bill (about 10 miles from them in Brooklyn) is any indication, the energy is > 50% renewable (hydro, nuclear, wind).
Traditionally-grown berries would need to be transported, likely hundreds of miles. These berries apparently go to NYC area within 20 miles. This saves on transportation and refrigeration.
