Schneider launches technology to shape region’s power, water industries

Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, will unveil technologies to increase energy efficiency and accelerate decarbonization designed squarely for the region’s power and water industries at the World Utilities Congress 2023. 

“As electrification, renewable energy generation, and the pace of digital transformation rise, an opportunity to take meaningful action on climate change that makes compelling business sense is emerging, said Ahmed Khashan, President of Gulf Countries, Schneider Electric. “We stand at the cusp of a new era of energy management. And we need new tools to operate in this dynamic new environment. Moreover, as the UAE prepares for COP28, we believe now is the time to double down on green investment and come to the realization that utilities are seen as increasingly important players in the sustainability and net zero equation.”

Schneider Electric will showcase its Grids of the Future portfolio, which features products to strengthen the efficiency and sustainability of utilities firms. The company will also present green alternatives to traditional systems, including intelligent software for energy management and tools for improving grid performance. Schneider Electric will also exhibit its EcoStruxure platform, the foundational technology backbone on which Schneider Electric’s solutions are built and delivered.

By incorporating Schneider Electric’s products, services and software, its partners and customers can optimize their operations and reduce their carbon footprint. 

Senior representatives from Schneider Electric will also participate in panel discussions, covering successful strategies to fuel innovation and bolster resilience and efficiency within a host of verticals including, water, wastewater, desalination, power and gas. 

Bringing together over 10,000 delegates and 120 exhibiting companies, the World Utilities Congress 2023 seeks to promote effective measures to digitize power and water systems, reduce emissions, and attract long-term capital investments. With more than 50 strategic and technical conference sessions featuring over 200 industry expert speakers and over 1,000 conference delegates, Schneider Electric’s participation at the Congress will play a key role in shaping the future of energy by driving sustainable solutions, fostering collaboration, and sharing expertise to build a more resilient and eco-friendly global energy landscape.
