Sustainability Excellence honored by Schneider Electric

The Schneider Electric Sustainability Impact Awards 2024 honor outstanding achievements in sustainability and innovation, focusing on carbon reduction and resource efficiency. It celebrates customers, channel partners and suppliers that turn sustainability ambitions into action.

Award Categories And Judging Criteria

Partners can submit for their own company’s sustainability initiatives or on behalf of a customer.  Each category has specific criteria and requires measurable impact evidence or proof points. The submission process involves an application form and supporting documents, such as case studies or project reports.

Judging will take place in three phases: Entries will be evaluated for country/zone awards; winners will then move on to be judged for regional awards and those finalists will move on for the prestigious global awards.

Deadline for initial entries is Oct. 14. More information from Schneider Electric is available online.

All organizations – including solution providers – are eligible to enter.  Solutions Providers should be part of the Schneider Electric Partner Program. Schneider Electric components should be a key part of the solution that delivered growth and success in the last 12 months.

Experts in sustainability and innovation will judge the entries. They will evaluate based on relevance, impact, scalability, and innovation. Winners receive recognition, including a trophy, a certificate, and opportunities for networking and visibility within the industry.

The awards ceremony will be a prominent event announcing and celebrating the winners. This platform aims to inspire organizations and individuals to adopt sustainable IT practices.

Schneider Electric's Sustainable Solutions

Among Schneider Electric’s IT solutions that could be included in an entry:

·       The EcoStruxure IT and EcoStruxture IT Expert platforms help businesses manage energy consumption and sustainability performance.

·       Smart UPS solutions offer reliable power protection and efficient energy management for edge environments and data centers.

Previous winners of this award include system integrator World Wide Technologies (WWT), of Maryland Heights, Missouri. Specifically, WWT collaborated with Schneider Electric to implement a new approach to Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) management for an education client. This initiative reduced the workload on the client’s IT staff by offering UPS management as a service, which not only optimized infrastructure use but also cut capital expenses. This effort highlighted WWT's commitment to sustainability through practical, cost-saving solutions that benefit both the company and its customers.

Schneider Electric recently won its own prestigious recognition, when Time Magazine named it as the world’s most sustainable company out of more than 500 reviewed globally.
