Schneider Electric introduces Continuous Efficiency -- a new approach to global energy managementANDOVER, Mass., Oct. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy management and automation, today introduced Continuous Efficiency, a suite of managed services and software that combines the knowledge of Schneider Electric experts with sophisticated tools and technology. The mix of onsite and remote support, as well as software, allows companies to uncover savings opportunities, implement changes at both the site and enterprise level, and constantly refine performance. "Mounting pressure to reduce operating costs, coupled with shareholder and customer desire for improved sustainability, has made energy management a priority for companies," said James Potach, Senior Vice President of Energy & Sustainability Services at Schneider Electric. "However, organizations are typically presented with services or technology solutions. And the answer for complex operations is often 'both.'" "Companies need to develop strategies, gather and analyze data, and make tactical improvements at both the enterprise and facility level. That's the path to maximum savings and the opportunity to reinvest for growth." Continuous Efficiency blends utility, facility and operations management to reduce energy use and spend — 15 to 30 percent on average. It also goes beyond basic energy efficiency to help commercial and industrial firms develop proactive management and maintenance programs to help extend equipment life, reduce downtime and fine-tune systems for ongoing performance. In addition, the enterprise-level approach allows large organizations to benchmark all their facilities, as well as compare them to like operations in their industry. This allows them to identify performance outliers and plan investments that will have the quickest and best payback across the portfolio. Key components of Continuous Efficiency include:
Continuous Efficiency is scalable to meet the needs of organizations as their energy and sustainability strategies and facilities footprint grow and evolve. Managers can choose the support and technology most relevant to their current business and easily pilot new programs. In addition to efficiency services, Schneider Electric provides supply and sustainability services globally, working with more than 4,500 clients with 350,000 sites and a combined energy spend of £30 billion.
