Global <strong>energy</strong> consumption is forecast to double by 2030. To continue to<br />
ensure a balanced and efficient relationship between demand and supply,<br />
intelligent decisions are needed throughout <strong>the</strong> power grid. All players must<br />
be interactively linked and managed within a smart grid.<br />
Up to 30% <strong>energy</strong><br />
savings by 2020 could<br />
obviate <strong>the</strong> need to<br />
build 1000 new power<br />
plants.<br />
Energy management is <strong>the</strong> fastest, cheapest<br />
and cleanest way <strong>of</strong> reducing <strong>energy</strong><br />
consumption: Up to 30% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>energy</strong><br />
consumed in existing systems can be<br />
saved through <strong>energy</strong>-efficient solutions.<br />
As a worldwide specialist for <strong>energy</strong><br />
management, Schneider Electric with its<br />
holistic "EcoStruxure" approach <strong>of</strong>fers integrated<br />
solutions for <strong>energy</strong> and infrastructure,<br />
renewable <strong>energy</strong> and electric mobility,<br />
industrial processes, machinery and<br />
industrial equipment, building automation,<br />
data centres, data solutions and residential<br />
buildings – from <strong>the</strong> power plant to <strong>the</strong><br />
power outlet.<br />

Flexible <strong>energy</strong><br />
distribution<br />
- Energy distribution<br />
in <strong>the</strong> distribution<br />
network is becoming<br />
increasingly automated<br />
and more flexible,<br />
resulting in increased<br />
supply security and<br />
efficiency<br />
- Integration <strong>of</strong> renewable<br />
<strong>energy</strong> sources<br />
through <strong>energy</strong> management<br />
optimises<br />
capacity and demand<br />
Energy management<br />
- Energy flow is visible<br />
to everyone<br />
- Providing <strong>the</strong> tools<br />
for optimising <strong>energy</strong><br />
consumption<br />
- New technology<br />
use leads to <strong>energy</strong><br />
efficiency<br />
- Energy savings up<br />
to 30% with quick<br />
payback <strong>of</strong> investments<br />
in new<br />
technology<br />
