Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, has introduced Zeigo Activate – a new subscription-based software as a service (SaaS) solution for Channel Partners, designed to help them accelerate climate action. Partners can utilize Zeigo Activate to calculate, measure and analyze carbon emissions, then set accurate, achievable decarbonization goals and build a tailored strategy to improve sustainability.
Zeigo Activate is a subscription-based SaaS solution for small-and medium-sized partners. Intuitive, standardized and easily scalable, it enables partners to calculate and track energy-related emissions, to set a customized implementation roadmap to minimize environmental impact, and connect to solution providers specializing in energy efficiency and renewables.
With regulatory changes sweeping across industries globally, sustainability is at the forefront. Zeigo Activate allows simplified data collection to help partners build their energy consumption profile and track their carbon emissions baseline progress, which results in them being able to follow their roadmap to decarbonize. This guided-journey simplicity is key for an SME partner experience who have time pressures on using complex software and limited sustainability expertise. This ensures decarbonization is not a barrier anymore as a personalized roadmap of actions is designed to reduce their emissions, such as energy efficiency projects and renewable energy opportunities. Then partners can connect directly with reputable vendors for the competencies that the project requires and start implementing their customized roadmap seeing estimated costs, savings, and return on investment.
Zeigo Activate joins two of Schneider Electric’s digital sustainability solutions and services, designed to meet the carbon reduction needs of businesses of any size or scale. They include Zeigo Power, which allows European users to digitally tender renewable energy Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), and Zeigo Network, which connects like-minded companies on the journey to decarbonization and has more than 600 corporate members globally.
Schneider Electric has also been named a Champion in the first edition of Canalys ‘Sustainable Ecosystems Leadership Matrix, primarily for its achievements in driving sustainability across the partner ecosystem and throughout its organization. Schneider Electric was awarded Champion status for its position as a leading vendor in sustainability and ESG, its diverse portfolio of sustainability and energy solutions, and its training, expertise, and support for partners seeking to build and develop decarbonization strategies.
