Managing an Efficient Enterprise
EcoStruxure architecture delivers the business
efficiencies you deserve
The economics of the planets
energy challenge
Doing more with less is becoming a
familiar mantra at companies around the
world, especially when it concerns energy
use. Managers at all levels are looking
for meaningful ways to permanently
reduce energy consumption and
boost performance for the sake of the
environment as well as the bottom line.
And with good reason. Energy demand is
expected to double by 2030, and some
experts forecast the energy demand
of the machine-to-machine Internet to
be 100-times greater than the current
human-to-human network. We are
learning the hard way that the earths
energy generation capacity is finite. You
dont have to be a scientist or economist
to recognize the simple outlook for energy
supply and demand. Simply put, energy
is expensive today and it promises to
become even more costly in the future.
What is an Efficient Enterprise?
As energy demands escalate from all
aspects of commerce and culture, the
most acute pain point is that due to
intrinsic inefficiencies, 33 units of energy
consumed at the point of use require 100
units of primary energy. It follows that the
war on waste a focus on negawatts, verification means your energy is visible
or watts not used will deliver the best
returns for businesses.
Those returns must come from all levels
of an enterprise to be truly efficient. From
point-of-use components to enterprise-
level energy architecture, meaningful
efficiency is a pervasive mandate.
But before you can drive business
efficiencies and save energy, you have
to be able to see it and thats where
solutions from Schneider Electric come in.

One facility, many functions
EcoStruxure Integrated Site Supervision gives
you even more from efficient components
Making strides toward total efficiency
There are several ways to approach
enterprise efficiency. A common and valid
first step is to take action at the site level,
where functional managers can oversee
the installation of components and
measure improvements in order to meet
performance and budgetary objectives.
For this first step to be, in fact, a stride
toward true efficiency and the savings
in CapEx, OpEx, and energy it brings,
the site must be equipped for more than
point-of-use improvements. Maximum
savings can be achieved when intelligent
and energy-efficient devices are not only
installed, but also controlled to use only
the energy that they require.
