REX521GHLPSH51GToday, as cutting-edge technologies continue to pave the way for innovation, the manufacturing industry is increasingly calling for high-flexibility and high-toughness production and operation models, and the interoperability between systems and the flexibility of hardware and software integration are also facing higher requirements. The openness of automation systems has become a necessary prerequisite for breaking barriers and breeding more innovation opportunities.
Schneider Electric has always been committed to building the cornerstone of an open automation world at all levels, advocating “open automation”, an important concept that runs through all aspects of future industry. This concept is fully reflected in the EcoStruxure Open Automation platform, a new software-centric industrial automation system created by Schneider Electric, which eliminates the need for software to be highly bound to hardware, making IT easier to achieve cost-effective and simple interoperability between OT and IT systems. This will lead to the further liberation of creativity and productivity, and realize Schneider Electric’s future blueprint to break down innovation barriers and boost industry confidence with open automation
Innovation is for the long term
Lead the sustainable development of enterprises
Innovation in the industrial field essentially serves the long-term development and conREX521GHLPSH51Gtinuous improvement of enterprises. Industry is the world’s largest carbon emitter, accounting for 30% of carbon dioxide emissions, of which 6% are direct carbon emissions and 24% are indirect carbon emissions. Therefore, for today’s industrial partners, the goal of sustainable development is increasingly urgent, and its importance is increasingly prominent in the competitiveness and influence of enterprises.
Schneider Electric believes that innovation in the industrial sector must not only focus on today’s business objectives, but also prepare for future sustainable challenges.
In fact, the process of sustainability itself is the path for organizations to become more agile and innovative, and in this process, industrial software, automation systems and energy management are indispensable:
With industrial software, process optimization and energy efficiency can be achieved;
With the help of automated systems, the optimization of processes, energy and resource utilization will be targeted;
The precise management, optimization and decarbonization of energy will create considerable ecological benefits.
It has been proven that through the integration of energy and automation, the integrated manageREX521GHLPSH51Gment of process performance and power consumption can reduce capital expenditure by 20%, reduce carbon footprint by 7-12%, and increase profitability by 3%.
Companies must not only take into account their own economic and social benefits, but also collaborate with the entire supply chain ecosystem. We need to rely on advanced innovative technologies to jointly explore carbon reduction opportunities, make the industrial supply chain more sustainable and resilient, and accelerate the sustainable development process of the entire industry.
Looking ahead, the tide of developing new quality productivity and moving towards future industries is already overwhelming. On this remarkable new track, Schneider Electric has made solid footprints, laying a steady start for the delineation of China’s future industrial blueprint.
