Schneider and Capgemini launch Energy Command Center (IA)

Schneider Electric joins forces with Capgemini to launch the Energy Command Center. This centralized, integrated platform is designed to monitor, control and optimize energy consumption in buildings and critical infrastructure. It combines cutting-edge digital solutions with advanced technologies to simplify energy management and reduce energy consumption. The energy command center uses artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and the Internet of Things (IoT) to measure and predict various parameters such as energy intensity, resource criticality and renewable energy production. By providing real-time data on energy consumption and carbon emissions, this platform helps organizations achieve decarbonization goals while reducing energy costs.

Specific results in India

From 2022, a prototype of the Energy Command Center, which accounts for approximately one quarter of the Group’s energy footprint, is being tested at Capgemini branches in India. With this platform, Capgemini has managed to reduce energy consumption by 29% in 2023 compared to 2019 across its eight major campuses in India. This success illustrates the potential of the solution to help companies decarbonize their operations. Aiman ​​Ezzat, CEO of Capgemini Group, said: “Digital technologies and data management have incredible potential to accelerate the energy transition. Together with Schneider Electric, we can help companies manage and accelerate their energy decarbonization path.”

Strategic collaboration for a sustainable future

Peter Herweck, Managing Director of Schneider Electric, emphasizes the importance of this cooperation: “It is essential to face the energy and climate crises. Energy efficiency plays a key role in mitigating them. Decarbonization through electrification and digitalization is essential for a sustainable future. Together with Capgemini we can make a significant impact. The solution combines Schneider Electric’s connected products and consulting tools with Capgemini’s expertise in data integration and processing, artificial intelligence and machine learning. By integrating all products and software into one central platform, Energy Command Center enables informed decision-making and optimized management of energy resources. The launch of the Energy Command Center by Schneider Electric and Capgemini represents an important step forward in energy management. This strategic collaboration illustrates the potential of digital technologies to transform the energy sector and promote a sustainable future.
