We are at the top of the “World's Most Sustainable Companies for 2024” list!
This recognition reflects our ambitious goals to reduce our own emissions, but also our commitment to help our customers become more efficient em energy terms and reduce their emissions.

Time and Statista used a transparent, multi-stage methodology to identify the world’s most sustainable companies in 2024. The process began with a pool of over 5.000 of the world’s largest and most influential companies. After rigorous evaluation, the final ranking excluded unsustainable industries and considered factors such as external sustainability ratings and commitments, corporate reporting practices, and environmental and social performance indicators. This comprehensive approach resulted in a ranking of 500 companies from over 30 countries.
Both Time and Statista highlighted the Schneider Electric's technological expertise and the program Schneider Sustainability Impact (SSI). This transformative program boosts e measures the company's progress towards the global sustainability goals for 2021-2025, contributing to six long-term commitments that span the environmental, social and governance (ESG) dimensions. Among these achievements, we have helped our customers reduce their carbon emissions, saving and avoiding 553 million tons of CO2 since 2018. We have also made significant progress in transforming our own supply chain: carbon emissions from our top 1.000 suppliers have fallen by 27% since the start of the program – and 21% of our most strategic partners have met Schneider Electric’s decent work standards.
