Schneider Electric Named World’s Most Sustainable Company
The company received this honor from TIME Magazine and Statista for the third year in a row.
Based in Toronto, Schneider Electric has been named the “World’s Most Sustainable Company 2026” by TIME Magazine and Statista for the third consecutive year. The recognition was drawn from a ranking of 5,000 of the world’s largest and most influential companies.
“Being recognized by TIME and Statista for the third year in a row is an honor,” said Emily Heitman, President of Schneider Electric Canada. “As energy becomes increasingly central to growth, competitiveness, and progress, the need to use it more intelligently continues to grow. We believe energy intelligence is a key enabler of both efficiency and decarbonization, helping our customers create lasting value while reducing emissions.
That belief has shaped Schneider Electric for many years and continues to guide how we innovate, operate, and advance energy technology.”
Schneider Electric recently launched its new sustainability roadmap: Impact 2030. Designed around four strategic pillars – electrifying the world, reinventing the industry, unlocking human potential, and empowering local communities – the group tracks its performance quarterly through measurable indicators, ensuring accountability at every level.
In the first quarter of the year, Schneider Electric reported a reduction of its Scopes 1 and 2 CO₂ emissions 82.5 percent compared with the 2017 baseline, strengthening resilience across Schneider Electric’s own operations.
Schneider Electric also reported:
• 47.5 million MWh of energy saved or electrified for customers in Q1, directly reinforcing resilience and efficiency.
• 20 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions saved and avoided this quarter alone.
The Group also continued to deploy its new future-designed framework, with 14 per cent of major offers in the design phase already demonstrating circular and environmental excellence.
Through Impact 2030, Schneider Electric also further strengthens its approach to engaging its ecosystem, recognizing that progress can only scale when partners move forward together.
