We continuously invest in and develop innovative solutions that deliver immediate and lasting decarbonization in line with our carbon pledge.
Climate commitments 2021 - 2025
80%
Impact revenues per Schneider Electric definition and methodology
800Mts
of CO2 emissions saved and avoided for customers
50%
reduction of CO2 emissions from top 1,000 suppliers’ operations
On track to net-zero
An ambitious plan for end-to-end decarbonization
Our Net-Zero target has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), we are fully committed to the Climate Group EP100, RE100, and EV100 to develop a roadmap aligned with the IPCC scenario limiting global average temperature rise to 1.5°C:
Carbon neutral operations in 2025
25% absolute carbon reduction across our entire value chain by 2030, and "Net-Zero ready" in our operations
End-to-end carbon neutral value chain in 2040
Net-Zero CO2 emissions across our entire value chain in 2050
Our commitment to renewable energy has deeply transformed our electricity sourcing strategy. To deliver the set targets, we will leverage four complementary tools: green tariffs, renewable certificates, power purchase agreements, and on-site generation.
Our target is to double our energy productivity by 2030 against the 2005 baseline by doubling the economic output from every unit of energy consumed within 25 years.
Meaningful impact takes an ecosystem of people, communities, suppliers, customers, and partners — and it needs to happen at every stage of the lifecycle.
Helping customers save and avoid 800M tonnes of CO2
By 2025, thanks to our energy and sustainability services, integrated EcoStruxure™ software and solutions, as well as green product innovations, effectively decarbonizing homes, buildings, grids, data centers, and industries.
