[PRNewswire] Schneider Electric Calls on Business Community to Work Together
on Efficiency and Sustainability at Innovation Summit Barcelona
- Realistic 50% efficiency and CO2 reductions possible with current energy and digital transformations
- Latest EcoStruxure™ innovations enable new levels of safety, reliability, efficiency, sustainability, openness and connectivity
- New partnerships accelerate delivery of energy and automation digital solutions for buildings, data centers, infrastructure and industry customers
(BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 2, 2019 PRNewswire=연합뉴스) Schneider Electric calculated that 50% of global CO2 emissions could be eliminated by 2040 if digitally enabled energy saving measures were implemented in just half of existing buildings, in tandem with existing global electrification and decarbonization initiatives. At the company's Innovation Summit, taking place today and tomorrow, Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, called on the more than 3,500+ customers, partners, suppliers and influencers to work together to make this a reality for the improved efficiency of their businesses and a more sustainable planet and development for all. Buildings, data centers, infrastructure and industry are responsible for around 70% of the world's energy use.
"We are experiencing a tectonic shift today towards electrification and digitization, enabling a new paradigm in sustainability," said Jean-Pascal Tricoire, Chairman and CEO, Schneider Electric. "For the first time in our history, we can all participate in a step change in efficiency and the rare opportunity to reconcile the paradox between progress for all and a sustainable future for our planet. We stand ready to work with our customers and partners to unlock new opportunities for efficiency and sustainability."
Today, Schneider Electric unveiled the latest developments in EcoStruxure, its IoT-enabled, plug and play, open, interoperable, architecture and platform.

Schneider also announced three new partnership programs. The Schneider Electric Technology Partner program [https://www.schneider-electric.com/en/partners/technology-partners/ ] is a new specialized program tailored for technology companies looking to scale and build up innovation within their businesses. Leveraging a certification approach and facilitated through Schneider Electric Exchange [https://exchange.se.com/ ], an open ecosystem and business platform, partners will have the opportunity to enrich solutions that solve customers' challenges around efficiency and sustainability.
The company also announced it is teaming up with technology industry leaders Avnet and Iceotope to jointly develop innovative, chassis-level immersive liquid cooling [https://blog.se.com/datacenter/2019/07/11/not-just-about-chip-density-five-reasons-consider-liquid-cooling-data-center/ ] solutions for data centers. And it is partnering with ThoughtWire, a leading provider of Digital Twins, to create smarter, more connected digital hospitals that improve operations and patient safety.
Earlier this year, the company unveiled its gas-free medium voltage switchgear of the future [https://go.schneider-electric.com/WW_201905_New-SF6-Free-Medium-VoltageSwitchgear-Technology-Unveiling-the-switchgear-of-the-future-Content_EA-LP-EN.html?source=Content&sDetail=New-SF6-Free-Medium-VoltageSwitchgear-Technology-Unveiling-the-switchgear-of-the-future-Content_WW ], which will use pure air instead of SF6 gas and allow users to step up in fully sustainable solutions. This new generation is equally fully digitized to unlock the value of data. The new technology achieves a level of cost efficiency vital for the widespread adoption of more sustainable equipment.
