Schneider Electric Launches SMART Buildings Division to Drive Sustainable Building Innovation in Canada

“Through our SMART Buildings division in Canada, we’re set to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and occupant comfort,” says Emily Heitman, President of Schneider Electric Canada. “Our goal is to empower building owners and operators to create smarter, more efficient spaces for a sustainable future.”

The SMART Buildings division will provide:

  • Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Optimizing energy consumption intelligently to achieve significant cost savings and reduce environmental impact.
  • Seamless Automation: Creating harmonious environments where lighting, HVAC, security systems, and more work together to optimize comfort and efficiency.
  • Proactive Maintenance: Leveraging predictive analytics and remote monitoring to ensure proactive maintenance, minimize downtime, and extend the lifespan of building systems.
  • Occupant Well-being: Prioritizing occupant comfort with personalized settings, indoor air quality monitoring, and intuitive interfaces that enhance overall experience.
  • Data-Driven Insights: Providing valuable data analytics for informed decision-making and continuous improvement of building performance.

Schneider Electric’s SMART Buildings Division is committed to shaping the future of intelligent buildings. By implementing smart building technology, commercial real estate owners can optimize energy use, elevate tenant experience, and enhance asset value. The division offers comprehensive tools, guidance, and expertise to improve building efficiency and achieve sustainability objectives.
