As more and more countries strive for net-zero emissions by 2050, there has been an increased focus on sustainability and resiliency objectives. The residential segment, which represents 29% of the world’s electricity consumption, plays a big part in achieving this. Schneider Electric, a pioneer in building a sustainable and resilient future, investigates the steps we can all take to make homes more sustainable and proposes a comprehensive solution to improve sustainability and resiliency in the white paper How A Home Energy Management System Improves Sustainability And Resiliency. This paper brings awareness to the common trends in home energy supply and demand and discusses the complexity of managing them. Finally, a home energy management system is described that can help homebuilders and homeowners make a home more sustainable and resilient.

Can 2022 accelerate positive change in the energy and climate arena?
The events of 2022 brought untold pain for millions around the world. But they also generated an opportunity we cannot afford to miss: to tackle the energy and the climate crises, hand-in-hand.
The fastest path to net-zero buildings
The building sector is currently not sustainable, accounting for up to 37% of energy-related CO2 emissions. To meet 2030 decarbonization goals, existing buildings must be upgraded.

The AI disruption: Challenges and guidance for data center design
Data processing power is rising to enable AI. The paper explains AI workload attributes, trends and challenges. It offers guidance for physical infrastructure: power, cooling, racks, software management.
Maintaining energy security and resilience with less emissions
How can energy resilience be prioritized while reducing carbon emissions? What other difficult decisions must government agencies and large companies make to ensure a just energy transition? And what are the biggest hurdles standing in the way of decarbonization and digitalization?
Energy efficiency: Time to act
Climate change and the energy crisis are reaching critical levels. It is crucial to consider both the energy supply and demand to accelerate the journey to net-zero.
Less is more: Time to wake up to the power of energy efficiency
We have all the ingredients. What we don’t have is time: we simply can’t let another two decades, or even just two years, go by before we deploy the power of electrification and digital energy-efficiency technologies to the fullest.
Europe’s energy crisis is slowly killing European industries
Continued short-termism in addressing Europe’s energy crisis by many government and business leaders is threatening livelihoods and lives.
Three steps to calculate total enterprise IT energy consumption using DCIM
