Q&A: How Schneider Electric’s NEO Network Is Shaping the Future of Renewables in Europe
Europe’s appetite for renewables is growing rapidly, and countries including Germany, Scotland and Denmark have already established themselves as leaders in renewable energy generation. However, the voluntary market for commercial and industrial participation has, as a whole, been slower to develop compared to the more aggressive US, Indian and Mexican markets.

Uncovering Opportunities: Changing How We Think About Energy
If someone asked you to name the top challenge presented by urbanization and our escalating world population, what would you say? One answer could be: the ever-increasing need for energy – which is one of the most basic dilemmas of modern life. But with the right approach, we can turn this challenge into an opportunity.

Schneider Electric Is Committed to Using 100% Renewable Electricity Across Its Global Operations by 2030
“Our 144,000 employees come to work every day with a passion for green growth. Some of them work to design innovative low-carbon technologies, energy efficient architectures, or circular business models. Others meet customers each day, support their resource productivity ambitions, and enable their journey towards zero emissions. Given this, we could not do less than align with this passion in the way we power our own sites and operations.

Schneider Electric VIDEO: Aligning Sustainability Goals with Climate Science
A new movement has begun, with more than 300 companies coming together to lead the fight against climate change. The need for a low-carbon future has become undeniable, a conclusion supported by the Paris Climate Agreement. The expansion of an unchanged energy system, with anything close to current levels of carbon-dioxide (CO2) intensity, would likely lead to global warming in excess of 4 degrees Celsius by the end of the century[1]— a crisis scientists agree would cause widespread and disastrous ecological problems.
