    Schneider Electric reports first half year results under new sustainability roadmap (P)

    Published on

    Schneider Electric, a global energy technology leader, today reported strong sustainability results for the first half of 2026.

    Six months after launching its new sustainability roadmap, Impact 2030, Schneider Electric’s Impact score reached 3.69/10[1], is on track toward the Group’s annual 2026 target of 4.20/10 (10/10 being the 2030 ambition). The score reflects traction across several key programs, combining progress in Schneider Electric’s own operations with scalable outcomes delivered for customers, suppliers and communities, across four strategic pillars.

    I/ Electrifying the World: Invest in breakthrough solutions and lead the Energy Tech transition by deploying electrification and digitalization, starting with ourselves and scaling for all.

    • Schneider Electric continued to decarbonize its operations in H1, with Scopes 1 and 2 CO emissions reduced by 82% compared to 2017. Scope 3 emissions were reduced by 12% compared to 2021.
    • Schneider Electric’s solutions enabled customers to save or electrify 5 million MWh.1
    • These continued efforts translated into more than 50 million tonnes of saved and avoided emissions for customers in H1, bringing the cumulative total to 913 million tonnes since 29% of applicable Schneider Electric software delivered energy and carbon insights to support customer decision-making in H1, reflecting a strong start for this new program, building on the Group’s foundational energy intelligence capabilities.

    II/ Reinventing our Industry: Engage and elevate the entire value chain to set new standards in the industry by rethinking how we design, source and promote, and engaging suppliers for decent work and decarbonization.

    • 27% of Schneider Electric’s major offers in the design phase met circular and environmental excellence criteria in H1, through the Group’s new Future-designed This reflects strong momentum driven by Energy Management, and Industrial Automation offers. Introduced as a new program under Impact 2030, Future-designed broadens the Group’s ambition to make sustainability an integral part of its offers’ value proposition. The program draws on more than 20 years of Schneider Electric’s ecodesign practice, with EcoDesign Way, Green Premium and Environment Data Program deployed under previous sustainability roadmaps.
    • Building on the success of Schneider Electric’s previous supplier decarbonization initiative, the Zero Carbon Pathway (TZCP) initiative expands the scope to 1,500 suppliers and adds Scope 3 and product carbon footprint (PCF) measurement to the requirements. During Q2, 15 suppliers qualified by meeting the following criteria: (i) quantification of operational emissions (Scopes 1,2), (ii) adopting emission reduction targets (iii) computing indirect emissions (Scope 3 or product carbon footprint). This was achieved by extensive supplier engagement, with over 200 live technical sessions conducted. To augment this effort, deployment of new AI-enabled digital tools (such as Resource Advisor+ for Supply Chain) was accelerated for over 1,000 suppliers in the first half. Together, these actions create a strong foundation for supplier decarbonization at scale in the coming quarters.

    III/ Unlocking Human Potential: Open the way to progress and shared prosperity by securing energy access for all and investing in skills and people opportunities.

    • 16% of the Group’s experienced employees were engaged in structured development or knowledge transfer activities in H1. Newly introduced under Impact 2030, this program builds on Schneider Electric’s long-standing practices in driving inclusion across generations and career stages, formalizing the approach to reskilling, mentoring, internal mobility and expert programs for senior talents. Schneider’s innovative approach in this field was recognized by the World Economic Forum as a Future of Inclusion Lighthouse in Q2.
    • 67M people benefited from access to sustainable electricity through Schneider Electric’s support since 2009. Q2 2026 alone enabled access for more than 2M people, with strong contributions from Africa and India). Since 2009, Schneider Electric has helped equip 1.37M young people with skills in electrification and sustainability, driving more inclusive progress.

    IV/ Empowering local communities: Promote local ecosystems and amplify grassroots voices by turning sites into community anchors and empowering our people to be agents of change.

    • 5 sites qualified under the Group’s Impact Workplaces multi-criteria framework. A new program under Impact 2030, Impact Workplaces builds on two decades of sustainability leadership across Schneider Electric’s sites, including ambitious criteria relating to energy efficiency, decarbonization and circularity. This program further expands ambitions to include biodiversity and local community impact.

    Together, these recognitions reinforce Schneider Electric’s position as the leading energy technology company driving sustainability impact at scale.
