Make An Impact: Final month for submission to the Schneider Electric Sustainability Impact Award

Schneider Electric’s prestigious awards scheme has entered the final weeks for entries, creating an opportunity to celebrate the outstanding efforts of partners, customers, and suppliers who are driving sustainability through innovation.
15^th October 2024 – entry deadline.

Schneider Electric partners, customers, and suppliers with passion and commitment to sustainability are invited to enter the annual Sustainability Impact Awards. Now in its third year, the awards offer global visibility for 12 winners at an exclusive green carpet event. They also offer valuable endorsement credentials, and an opportunity to position your company as a sustainability leader alongside the world’s most sustainable company, as named by Time Magazine and Statista.

Celebrating excellence
In 2023, 12 overall winners were recognised for outstanding performance in either decarbonising their own operations or the operations of their customers. These include Leicester-based panel builder Michael Smith Switchgear, which was recognised for taking many small steps that made a big impact on decarbonisation. This year’s scheme builds on this with 12 global winners, 26 regional winners and 100 country winners. Entrants will be assessed on integrated approaches to sustainability and their efforts to improve energy efficiency through digital tools and other activities that drove net-zero targets.

As the world’s most sustainable company, Schneider Electric has made a commitment to inspire meaningful action across the whole supply chain for the collective decarbonisation of industry.
