PORTFOLIO-WIDE LEADERSHIP COMMITMENTS
100% GHG reduction in 10 years
20% reduction in Energy Intensity
SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC IS PARTICIPATING IN THE FOLLOWING DOE PROGRAMS:
Better Climate Challenge | Better Plants Challenge | Waste Reduction Network |
Low Carbon Pilot | Industrial Energy Performance Accelerator |
As a Better Buildings Better Plants Challenge Partner, Schneider Electric has committed to achieve a 20% reduction in energy intensity and 95% in waste diverted from landfills at their U.S. facilities by the end of 2028 against a baseline of 2016. The company's showcase project includes pursuing Superior Energy Performance certification at a Smyrna, TN plant site that includes a recently installed 1,000 kilowatt dual voltage solar farm. This solar farm is the first dual voltage solar farm in the U.S. with the ability to operate at both 1000VDC and 600VDC, providing an opportunity for more efficient solar farm operation and giving us a real-time learning lab to research and test our renewable energy solutions.
