RUEIL-MALMAISON, France, Sep 29, 2026 – Schneider Electric and Greenly are combining carbon accounting software with audits and consulting for small and medium-sized (SME) businesses. Through Schneider Electric’s Decarbonization Champion Program (DCP), partners can track Scope 1 and 2 emissions and develop reduction plans with SE Advisory Services.
The program serves panel builders, contractors and system integrators across Schneider Electric’s global partners. It is the company’s first sustainability initiative dedicated to SME partners in the electrical value chain.
Emissions Measurement and Planning
Schneider Electric estimates the program’s annual value at more than $34,000, or €30,000, per channel partner. It includes:
- Access to the Schneider Electric Sustainability and Energy Tech School for training in sustainability fundamentals.
- Greenly software to measure, visualize, track and report Scope 1 and 2 emissions.
- SE Advisory Services support, including remote audits, strategy workshops and jointly developed decarbonization roadmaps.
- Access to selected Schneider Electric decarbonization technologies and financial incentives.
- Co-branded recognition for participating partners.
Pilot Audits Identify Potential Savings
Initial SE Advisory Services audits in the Pacific region identified potential savings at participating businesses. One contractor identified annual savings opportunities exceeding $28,500 (40,000 AUD).
A Queensland manufacturer identified more than $178,000 (250,000 AUD) in potential savings through air system efficiency, load shifting and equipment optimization. Schneider Electric reported these figures as opportunities identified through audits, not realized savings.
Schneider Electric linked the program to customer requests for supplier emissions data. It also cited the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and Australia’s Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (CRFD) regime as factors increasing demand for supply chain transparency.
“This program reflects our commitment as an Energy Tech Partner to creating value across our partner ecosystem. Together with Greenly, we are helping our partners build the capabilities needed to meet evolving market expectations, improve operational efficiency, and accelerate decarbonization,” said Bin Lu, executive vice president, power products, Schneider Electric. “By combining digital tools with expert guidance, we are enabling our partners to deliver long-term business value and sustainability impact.”
Alexis Normand, CEO and co-founder of Greenly added: “Many SMEs want to act on carbon reduction but lack accessible tools and guidance. By combining software with hands-on support, we aim to make decarbonization both measurable and actionable across supply chains.”
