Since then, the Group has successfully launched The Zero Carbon Project , its initiative to halve carbon emissions of its top supply chain partners by 2025, a call to action already joined by 91% of them. By engaging, training, and supporting the sustainable transformation of each of its 1,000 partners, the Group will sharply reduce its Scope 3 emissions. 917 suppliers have now been trained and are ready to drive climate action as part of this project.
As the digital partner for efficiency and sustainability, Schneider Electric also continues to support its customers in attaining their own sustainability goals, with digital innovation and solutions.

Since 2018, Schneider has helped its customers save and avoid 302 million tons of CO2 emissions.
“A successful sustainability program can only be built on trust and engagement.” said Olivier Blum, Schneider Electric’s Chief Strategy and Sustainability Officer. “It’s very encouraging to see such a high-level mobilization from our supply chain partners in our decarbonization journey, as well as that of our customers and employees – all of whom count on our unique expertise and experience in this field.”

Only 58% of brands say their channels are fully in sync, and 60% have centralized storage of customer data.
