Paris--(뉴스와이어)--Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, announced today the progress made on its Schneider Sustainability Impact (SSI) program at the end of Q4 2021, marking the end of this ambitious program’s first year.

The 2021-2025 SSI program, launched on the same day in January 2021 that Schneider Electric was recognized as the world’s most sustainable corporation by Corporate Knights, is designed to boost Schneider’s efforts in fighting climate change and social inequality, through 11 global transformations complemented by many local commitments. Throughout 2021, key transformative programs have been put in place to ensure successful progress towards the program’s 2025 targets. Schneider Electric discloses its progress in meeting the SSI goals each quarter, together with its financial results.

“As an impact company, we are making a unique difference and have raised the bar with our 2025 sustainability commitments. Our first year’s results are encouraging and set the path towards our 5-year goals,” said Olivier Blum, Chief Strategy and Sustainability Officer. “Teams from across the company have collectively stepped up and we are engaged on sustainability on all fronts”
