The company said that EcoStruxure relies on two main principles. Firstly, EcoStruxure is based on the portfolio of purpose specific applications in five domains such as power, datacentres, process and machines, building control, and physical security, that are essential to solve the energy equation.
Secondly, EcoStruxure is able to connect these five domains of expertise within an open and flexible ecosystem of technology that relies on the use of IP and web services, allowing purpose specific applications to connect whenever needed, at the right level.
The company claims that with EcoStruxure, businesses can anticipate better results and improvements in operations through systematic energy visibility and real time control of any energy usage. In addition, energy waste in all forms – from electricity and water to mechanical and human – can be captured and mitigated to achieve improved efficiency.
The company will be rolling out EcoStruxure reference architectures as well as corresponding training throughout 2010.
Aaron Davis,chief marketing officer of Schneider Electric, said: ”Uncoordinated component-level attempts to solve energy management issues by different corporate functions without a comprehensive plan can actually inhibit a company’s ability to meet efficiency goals.
“By providing our customers with clear and comprehensive reference architectures across key environments and applications, we intend to reduce inefficiencies and increase a company’s ability to make invisible energy waste both visible and actionable.”
