      A global data center with 100+ sites needed accurate forecasts of its operational expenses, even in the face of premium fees from its power provider. Our creative approach not only delivered budget certainty while avoiding premium charges, but also drove $5.8 million in savings in Singapore.

    • Delivering comprehensive sourcing services

      Eight years ago, a world leader in convenient snacks, foods and beverages turned its complex and evolving energy program over to Schneider Electric. Since then, we’ve combined energy procurement, tariff analysis, budget development and online energy reporting to drive millions in cost savings: nearly $7 million last year alone.

    • Identifying savings opportunities in any environment

      An international mining company’s electricity costs increased 110% over a five-year period. To control costs and deliver savings, our analysts vetted suppliers in the market to find a reliable partner. In collaboration with the supplier and the client, Schneider Electric opened up the Michigan market and delivered more than $30 million in annual savings to its client, a whopping 20% savings on a nearly $150 million electricity spend.
