Schneider Electric has published its 2025 extra-financial results, marking the conclusion of its Schneider Sustainability Impact (SSI) 2021\u20132025 program. Over the past five years, the Group has reported measurable progress across climate, social, and governance dimensions, supporting customers, partners, and communities in their transition toward a more sustainable and inclusive future.<\/p>\n
As of the end of Q4 2025, Schneider Sustainability Impact program (SSI) achieved an overall score of 8.86\/10, reflecting the scale of the sustainable transformation carried out across the Group and its value chain over the past five years. This chapter demonstrates how Schneider Electric has translated long-term ambition into measurable, global and local results, transforming its business and engaging its ecosystem.<\/p>\n
\u201cSchneider Sustainability Impact 2021\u20132025 has been a transformative journey,\u201d said Olivier Blum, CEO of Schneider Electric. \u201cFor more than 20 years, sustainability has been rooted in our identity and driven our journey forward. By combining innovation, partnerships, and accountability, we have delivered progress against key sustainability metrics across our operations and our ecosystem. These results reinforce our belief that sustainability is a powerful driver of both performance and positive impact.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Group has been playing a critical role in helping customers reduce their environmental footprint through its products and solutions. By the end of 2025, the Group enabled customers to save and avoid 862 million tonnes of CO\u2082 emissions, surpassing its original ambition of 800 MtCO\u2082.<\/p>\n
Moreover, through the Zero Carbon Project, Schneider Electric has successfully mobilized its supply chain to take concrete action toward decarbonization. By engaging its top 1,000 suppliers, the Group contributed to a 56% reduction in suppliers\u2019 operational CO\u2082 emissions.<\/p>\n
Schneider continues to push for fair and safe working conditions across its suppliers\u2019 ecosystem. As of 2025, 98% of strategic suppliers conform to the Group\u2019s Decent Work requirements, reinforcing respect for human rights, ethical labor practices, and employee well-being in its value chain.<\/p>\n
Guided by its mission to power progress for all, Schneider Electric has continued to contribute to a fair and inclusive energy transition, enabling its stakeholders to participate in and benefit from sustainable progress. Through the Access to Energy initiative launched in 2009, the Group has expanded access to clean, reliable, and affordable energy for underserved communities, impacting more than 61 million people worldwide by the end of 2025, well beyond its original ambition of 50 million beneficiaries. At the same time, Schneider Electric has invested in youths\u2019 upskilling and education to support long-term inclusion, training over one million people in energy management since 2009, and equipping individuals with the capabilities needed to build resilient communities and support the global energy transition.<\/p>\n
Since 2021, more than 500 local sustainability initiatives have come to life in the countries where Schneider Electric operates, illustrating how the Company contributes to generating impact for local communities.<\/p>\n
\u201cClosing SSI 2021\u20132025 is a milestone, not a finish line. What remains is the collective capability we\u2019ve built with our people, customers and suppliers, and the discipline to deliver concrete results and meaningful impact\u201d said Esther Finidori, Chief Sustainability Officer of Schneider Electric. \u201cAs we move toward 2030, our compass is clear: we\u2019ll leverage technology and innovation for progress, bring others along, learn and share what works to scale impact while continuously striving to do the right thing. At Schneider Electric, we\u2019re convinced that advancing energy technology can help power progress for all.\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition to these achievements, Schneider Electric\u2019s sustainability approach has also been recognized across several top ESG ratings, such as Ecovadis Platinum medal, the placement on CDP\u2019s Climate Change A list, and the ranking 1st in the Social Benchmark and 3rd in the Gender Benchmark in the latest World Benchmarking Alliance (WBA) assessment, among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
