Schneider Electric 2017-2018 Sustainability Report
For the fourth year, Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, announces its financial and non-financial results together for the first quarter of 2018. Each quarter, Schneider Electric publishes 21 indicators from the 2018- 2020 Schneider Sustainability Impact, which replaces the Planet & Society barometer, measuring progress towards its ambitious sustainability commitments. With a total score of 3.56 out of 10 at end-March 2018, the Group has exceeded its Schneider Sustainability Impact target of 3.50 out of 10 for the quarter. The end-2018 target is 5 out of 10.
Gilles Vermot Desroches, Sustainability Senior VP at Schneider Electric, commented: “The implementation of Schneider Electric's strategic priorities is supported by tangible and ambitious commitments to manage the Group's transformation on a daily basis and to promote long-term sustainable growth. The results of the 2015- 2017 Planet & Society barometer exceeded expectations and have given us a platform to launch the new, broader and more ambitious Schneider Sustainability Impact, with 21 strong commitments to be achieved by 2020. These contribute to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and to our goals for 2025, 2030 and 2050. The Schneider Sustainability Impact forms Schneider Electric’s transformation plan and sustainability dashboard, which is renewed every three years. We are targeting a score of 5 out of 10 at the end of 2018, the highest target ever set for the first year of our three-year plan since the launch of our Planet & Society barometer in 2005. With a Schneider Sustainability Impact score of 3.56 out of 10 at the end of March 2018, we are on track to achieving our target.”
