The increasing demand for energy is necessitating change. The\ntransformation towards cleaner energy systems, accelerated\ndigitalisation and artificial intelligence (AI), as well as increasingly\ncomplex geopolitical dynamics, are simultaneously reshaping the way\nindustries, businesses, and societies conduct their activities.<\/p>\n
The new energy landscape, digital and AI domains, and a more\nmultipolar world not only heighten complexity but also open vast\nopportunities to create more efficient, resilient, and sustainable\nsystems.<\/p>\n
In the new energy landscape, global electricity demand is projected\nto rise by around 40% by 2035, or nearly 1,000 TWh per year, driven by\naccelerated electrification and growth in new sectors such as data\ncentres and AI.<\/p>\n
At the same time, accelerated digitalisation is driving a surge in\ndigital infrastructure needs, with global data centre capacity expected\nto quadruple by 2030. Meanwhile, in an increasingly multipolar world,\naround 97% of companies plan to redesign their supply chains within the\nnext two years as of mid-2024.<\/p>\n
These shifts are pushing supply chains to become more localised,\nautomated, and sustainable to ensure operational flexibility and meet\nnet-zero targets. To address these changes, Schneider Electric is\nimplementing electrification, automation, and digitalisation across\nevery industry, business, and residential home to drive efficiency and\nsustainability, in line with its \u201cAdvancing Energy Tech\u201d commitment.<\/p>\n
\u201cCurrently, our customers face increasingly complex challenges, from\nrising energy costs and sustainability demands to accelerated digital\ntransformation that is changing the way industries operate. At Schneider\nElectric, we see this as an opportunity to build a better future\ntogether,\u201d said Martin Setiawan, President Director of Schneider\nElectric Indonesia and Timor Leste, quoted on Thursday (2\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough our role as an energy technology partner, we want to help\ncustomers step forward with greater confidence in realising more\nefficient buildings, sustainable data centres, smarter industries, and\nmore resilient and integrated infrastructure,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Technology for the New Energy Landscape<\/p>\n
Schneider Electric is introducing technology that enables the\nrealisation of the new energy landscape, allowing buildings, data\ncentres, industries, infrastructure, and power grids to operate as open,\nconnected, software-based systems.<\/p>\n
In the data centre sector, the surge in AI-based computing is driving\nsignificant increases in energy demand. Schneider Electric offers\nsolutions to support more efficient, reliable, and sustainable data\ncentres, from hyperscale to edge, including innovations such as Motivair\nliquid cooling by Schneider Electric and software-defined power.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, in the buildings and residential sector, technology\nenables transformation from mere energy consumers to active parts of the\nenergy ecosystem. AI-integrated technology in solutions like the\nSpaceLogic Room Controller helps optimise HVAC systems, reduce energy\nconsumption, and turn buildings into smarter energy assets.<\/p>\n
On the power grid and infrastructure side, the integration of\nrenewable energy and energy system volatility demand more adaptive\nsystems. Through IoT-based platforms and AI-based solutions like the\nmicrogrid advisor, Schneider Electric helps energy operators balance\nelectricity supply and demand, reduce carbon emission intensity, and\nenhance system resilience.<\/p>\n
In the industrial sector, rapid market changes demand high\noperational flexibility. Software-based automation technology enables\nmanufacturing and process industries to adapt in real-time to changing\nproduction needs, while also improving energy efficiency.<\/p>\n
Connecting Energy and Digital through EcoStruxure<\/p>\n
The key to this transformation is the integration of energy systems\nand digital technology. Schneider Electric achieves this through\nEcoStruxure, an open AI-based platform that connects devices, control\nsystems, and analytics applications from the operational level to the\ncloud in a unified ecosystem.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith this approach, our customers or partners can transform data\ninto energy and industrial intelligence, enabling real-time energy\nmonitoring and optimisation, improving asset reliability, and\naccelerating the achievement of decarbonisation targets,\u201d said\nMartin.<\/p>\n
EcoStruxure provides connectivity and creates systems capable of\ndelivering predictive and prescriptive insights. This helps customers\nmake faster, more accurate, and impactful decisions.<\/p>\n
Collaboration for Broader Impact<\/p>\n
\u201cSchneider Electric recognises that energy transformation cannot be\ndone alone. For this reason, the company is building a global partner\necosystem that includes system integrators, technology partners, and\nelectrical professional communities,\u201d explained Martin.<\/p>\n
Through this collaboration, Schneider Electric not only delivers\ntechnology but also ensures measurable implementation that is relevant\nto local needs and capable of delivering impact across various sectors.\nThis ecosystem-based approach is one of the keys to accelerating the\nwidespread adoption of energy technology.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith over a century of experience in energy and industrial\ninnovation, Schneider Electric continues to be at the forefront in\naddressing evolving global challenges,\u201d he emphasised.<\/p>\n
Currently, Schneider Electric\u2019s technology supports operations in\nmore than one million buildings worldwide, contributes to global\nhospital infrastructure, and is part of the infrastructure used by\nleading cloud service providers.
