Automation and energy management company Schneider Electric has rejoined the Green Building Council of South Africa (GBSA).

The company says the move confirms its commitment to promoting and enabling sustainable practices in the local building industry.

GBSA, with its 75 members, operates across the commercial, residential and public sector to ensure that buildings and homes are designed and built with environmental sustainability in mind.

Schneider’s digital solutions for building renovation have shown to cut carbon emissions in office buildings by up to 70%, Schneider finds in a research paper conducted with professional services firm WSP.

The paper, titled ‘Decarbonise the office: Unleash the power of digital solutions for building renovation’, also finds that retrofitting buildings using a digital-first approach is the best pathway to office decarbonisation.

Schneider believes joining GBSA enhances its position and reputation as a trustworthy solution provider in the building segment. It also enables the company to closely tailor its solutions to meet the immediate and long-term needs of the green building industry.

Through its membership of the organisation, Schneider has access to its latest research, tools, trends and case studies in the green building industry, which Schneider can use to refine its energy management offerings and contribute to the development of sustainable practices.

GBSA also offers tailored training programmes and certification codes, which ensure that Schneider’s employees are well-equipped to champion sustainability in their roles.
