Our sustainable development scorecard

Schneider Electric is taking innovative actions to improve its sustainable development performance (such as the BipBop programme). The Planet & Society Barometer shows the measurable goals of these actions. 

•  Communicate our progress plans.
•  Measure our performance quarterly.
•  Integrate sustainable development into the company programme.
•  Give the history of our actions.

All the objectives of the Planet & Society Barometer are voluntary; none were dictated by legal constraints.
The Planet & Society Barometer is one of the indicators of the One Schneider Electric company programme that sets the strategic priorities of the Group for 2009 to 2011.

• socio-environmental challenges, such as reducing carbon emissions in the company's activities, quickly developing energy efficiency solutions and products or reducing accidents in factories;
• challenges that Schneider Electric considers to be strategic to enable it to continue to play a leading medium- and long-term role in its markets, such as the BipBop access to electricity programme for the poorest populations on the planet, the commercial development of recovery services for devices containing SF₆ gas or the satisfaction of its employees.
