Expand the development of AI products and services by collaborating across all business units through Schneider's AI Hub.

Schneider Electric announced on the 13th that it has announced the progress of its AI strategy in celebration of the first anniversary of the launch of its global AI Hub.

Schneider Electric's global AI hub empowers customers to collect data across their entire value chain and is developing a range of applications for customer support, finance, global supply chain, sales, HR, and more.

Last year, Schneider Electric established a global AI hub focused on data collection and analysis to strengthen its AI strategy within the company, and appointed Philippe Rambach as Chief AI Officer (CAIO). Since then, we have secured over 200 AI and data experts, filed 18 AI technology patents, applied AI-based technologies to 15 solutions, and developed over 20 internal AI applications.

Schneider Electric's AI Hub collaborates across business units to solve customers' most pressing challenges and prioritize AI use cases that deliver the highest customer value.

Additionally, with a focus on efficiency and sustainability, the company said it will strive to further develop AI applications in the fields of electrification, automation, and decarbonization, including microgrid management, alarm management, HVAC optimization for buildings, electric vehicle (EV) management, smart charging, and asset management.

Schneider Electric AI applications include EcoStruxure Resource Advisor, EcoStruxure Microgrid Advisor, or EcoStruxure Autonomous Production Advisor.

Schneider Electric also launched Virtual Sales Assistant, an AI-powered application that connects the entire ecosystem and provides personalized information.

“AI at Schneider Electric is timeless, and it’s about tackling climate change, the biggest challenge of our generation,” said Philippe Rambach, Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer (CAIO) at Schneider Electric. “Since launching our AI Hub last year, we’ve been excited to discover and develop so many AI-powered products and services. “Customers recognize that Schneider Electric’s advanced AI technologies and domain expertise make us the right partner in challenging times,” he said.
