New Delhi, 18 May 2026 – Schneider Electric, a global energy technology leader, today announced the expansion of SE Advisory Services, its flagship global consulting brand in India. The offering is aimed at helping enterprises navigate rising energy complexity, cost pressures, and decarbonisation requirements. It combines world-class strategic advisory with AI-powered software and end-to-end project implementation to support organisations through the evolving energy transition.
As one of the world’s fastest-growing energy markets, India is witnessing a sharp rise in electricity demand, projected to grow at over 6% annually, driven by rapid urbanisation, industrial expansion, and digital adoption. At the same time, India’s upgraded climate commitments as per the latest NDCs — targeting 60% non‑fossil fuel-based power capacity and a 47% reduction in emissions intensity of GDP by 2035 — are accelerating the need for smarter, more efficient, and technology-led energy management.
Mr. Deepak Sharma, MD & CEO, Zone President – Greater India, Schneider Electric, said, “India’s energy demand is growing rapidly, but the real challenge for businesses today is managing energy smarter, not just consuming more of it. As costs rise and decarbonisation becomes business-critical, organisations need integrated solutions that combine strategy, digital intelligence, and execution. SE Advisory Services is designed to help businesses make faster, more informed decisions and translate ambition into measurable outcomes.”
SE Advisory Services is designed to provide end-to-end support from strategy to execution. It brings together a comprehensive portfolio of solutions across:
- Sustainable Business & Industrial Transformation: Supporting enterprises in advancing decarbonisation, digital transformation, electrification, renewable integration, circularity, and low-carbon operations across both energy systems and industrial processes.
- Risk Management & Resilience: Helping organisations navigate energy volatility, cybersecurity, climate risks, and system disruptions to reduce downtime, harden connected systems, and build operational resilience
- Resource & Asset Performance: Strategically assessing resources and systems to enhance reliability, reduce waste, and unlock capacity for growth.
- Intelligent Software: Providing specialized, AI-enabled software solutions built on deep advisory expertise to connect fragmented workflows and translate insights into action.
Venkat Garimella, Vice President- Sustainability, Greater India Zone, Schneider Electric, said, “What we are seeing across industries is a clear shift. Energy, automation, and digital systems are no longer separate conversations, they are deeply interconnected. As a result, transformation cannot happen in silos.
Organisations need a partner who understands this convergence and can translate it into actionable change on the ground. Our Advisory Services are designed to deliver exactly that by combining sustainability expertise with advanced energy technologies, digital innovation, and execution capabilities. We are helping customers not only identify opportunities for efficiency and decarbonisation, but also implement them at scale and realise tangible business outcomes, while strengthening resilience, future-proofing operations, and staying ahead of rapidly evolving regulatory and market expectations.”
By treating energy management as a strategic asset rather than a fixed cost, Schneider Electric is ensuring that the infrastructure of the future is as intelligent as it is powerful. Through SE Advisory Services, the company continues to evolve with the nation, transitioning from an electrification hardware provider to a global hub for energy innovation and strategic excellence. By orchestrating the journey
from the grid to the chip, Schneider Electric is empowering Indian businesses to lead the global transition toward a more resilient, sustainable, and digitized future.
