Energy efficiency is high on the agenda at Schneider Electric and it has rolled out an Action Energy programme across all company sites with projected year-end energy savings of up to one million pounds.
Schneider Electric also has a dedicated Energy Efficiency team that can provide businesses with the consultancy, project implementation, in-depth product and application knowledge and lifecycle support services needed to deliver sustainable energy reduction programmes.
Kevin Jones, Principal Energy Consultant at Schneider Electric commented: "We are extremely proud to have received national recognition for all the work we have done.
If we are to succeed in meeting Kyoto targets, business must stop ignoring its energy responsibility, listen to Government and start playing a part in doing something about energy consumption.
Adopting a responsible approach to energy can not only show a healthy and rapid payback to all concerned, but we might help save the planet in the process".
