Schneider Electric opens energy efficient hub in Singapore

Schneider Electric has announced the opening of their new logistics hub for Asia that employs its expertise in energy management to optimize energy efficiencies.

"Schneider Electric's expertise in power, data centers, process and machines, building control and physical security has enabled us to build an intelligent energy management solution - Schneider Electric Energy Efficient Hub - that today is bringing us savings of over 30% per year, which equates to approximately S$68,000 ($52,203.91)," says Bruno Lesage, Hub Asia director.

"The first Energy Efficient Hub makes invisible energy waste both visible and actionable. There is real-time tracking of power conditions to generate raw data of electricity consumption allocation, analyze power quality, reliability and trends, and produce reports such as energy cost and load profile reports."

The new logistics hub being one of only two global hubs, occupies over 14,000 sqm and will manage over 110,000 cubic meters of cargo per year from over 50 suppliers in 17 countries and distribute them to over 170 customers in 31 countries.
