Irfan Yunus, VP Chemicals with Schneider Electric, shares his perspective on what actions to take with customers to help their sustainability goals through efficiency, asset reliability, and digitization.

"Sustainability will only be achievable if we make sure our businesses digitize," reflects Jessica Bethune, Process Automation DACH Cluster Leader for Schneider Electric.

Translating data into action is the fundamental method to ensure operational excellence in the plant. Stephen Reynolds, Industry Principal – Chemicals for AVEVA™ shares his perspective.

"The best way to improve safety performance is by marginal gains — small, incremental improvements that can add up to a big difference," says Chris Stogner, VP EcoStruxure™ Triconex Safety at Schneider Electric. But as heavy-process industries process on their digital journey, safety can sometimes be ignored.

"At Schneider Electric, we firmly believe that the best energy for the planet is the one we do not consume", says Eric Koenig, Strategy VP for Energy and Chemicals. With advancements in electrification, digitization, and the overall perspective of a more sustainable world, we are poised to tackle climate goals while still enabling profitable business.

"A good balance of digitization and cybersecurity are keys to your company's success", says Alina Capolupo, Digital Transformation Consultant with Schneider Electric. Operational efficiency is no game. That's why a defensive and offensive strength from field to device to operating center is a winning solution.

To leverage data across operational and technology silos, you need to have a partner invested in the efficiency of your business. David Schweinberger, Head of Sales and Business Development — ET/OT Channel at Schneider Electric leads a team that supports this combining of environments — ensuring the resiliency between IT and OT solutions.
