Schneider Electric: Innovations for a Sustainable Future
Schneider Electric, a global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, is stepping up its work in clean energy. At RE+—the premier event for clean energy innovation, now marking its 20th year—the company is showcasing new solutions designed to make energy use smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable from end to end.
New Developments in Energy Management
Two announcements anchor Schneider Electric’s news this year, spanning both commercial and residential needs. First is the Schneider Charge Pro, a commercial electric vehicle (EV) charger built to raise the bar on smart charging. It’s designed to deliver a dependable, adaptable experience for the folks who have to live with it every day—installers, site operators, and drivers.
Benefits of Schneider Charge Pro
The Schneider Charge Pro is built to slip into existing setups without drama, so businesses and municipalities can shape a charging environment that fits their sites rather than the other way around. Its flexibility supports tailored deployments, helping organizations scale EV charging in line with their goals and day-to-day realities.
In short, it’s a versatile, sustainable platform for commercial EV charging—one that aims to be easy to install, straightforward to run, and simple to use.
Introducing Schneider Home
Schneider also introduced Schneider Home, an energy management system that helps homeowners take control of how they power their lives. The platform brings solar generation, battery storage, EV charging, and utility power together in one place, with control through a single app. By coordinating these sources, it streamlines daily energy use, strengthens home resiliency, and helps reduce utility costs.
Empowering Homeowners
With Schneider Home, homeowners can extend backup power during outages and manage consumption with less guesswork. Everything runs through one view, making it easier to decide when to store, when to use, and when to charge—so energy works around the home, not the other way around.
Engaging Panel Discussions at RE+
Schneider Electric leaders will join six panels at RE+, digging into essential topics shaping the energy landscape, from distributed energy resources (DERs) to evolving renewable technologies. These sessions signal the company’s intent to share what it’s learning and help move the broader conversation—and the industry—forward.
Panel Highlights
- Resilient Futures: Harnessing Renewables and Storage for Climate Adaptation - How renewable generation and storage can steady the grid and support climate resilience.
- Mastering EV Charging Projects - Practical insights for navigating the multi-stage path of planning, deploying, and operating EV charging infrastructure.
- Smart Panels Plus: Transforming Buildings into DERs - Ways smart panels can turn buildings into active participants in the energy ecosystem.
Accelerating the Energy Transition
Nadège Petit, Schneider Electric’s Chief Innovation Officer, underscored the urgency of speeding up deployment. The technology for a sustainable energy future is here; now it has to scale. As she put it: “We need to rapidly scale the deployment of solar technology, EV charging infrastructure, and microgrids, facilitating a smoother transition for both producers and consumers of energy.” The priority is clear: build resilience into the grid while expanding access to clean, reliable power.
