Envisioning a Sustainable Future by Solving Energy Paradox

Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy management and automation, announces the launching of Strategy & Sustainability Highlights that shows the progress of the company towards an answer to the world energy paradox. According to International Energy Agency, by 2050 the energy consumption will increase by 50%, whilst 2,3 billion people with poor or no access to energy must be attended by 2030 to accomplish one of 17 Sustainable Developments Goals settled by United Nations, that aims to universalize the access to affordable and sustainable energy worldwide. Accomplishing both objectives must be aligned with another planetary goal to limit global warming up to 2 °C.
