Schneider Electric clinches double industry recognition, leading the industry forward in innovation for operational resiliency

MANILA, Philippines, 26 January 2021– As the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, Schneider Electric was recently awarded the 2020 Asia-Pacific Critical Power Infrastructure Vendor of the Year and the 2020 Asia-Pacific UPS Company of the Year by Frost & Sullivan. Schneider Electric has consistently won awards in this field since 2012, further reinforcing its strength as a global market leader for data center solutions.

In its recent achievement at the Frost & Sullivan awards, Schneider Electric has earned these accolades for developing two product ranges: Galaxy, which is focused on power reliability and energy efficiency; and Easy UPS, equipped with value and customer-focused features. Schneider Electric rolled out several major innovations for both ranges in 2019. The Galaxy V-Series (VX, VM, VS) UPS is its ECOnversion mode of operation, which offers an unbeatable 99% energy-efficiency. Among its key advantages is that the inverter can seamlessly take over the support of the load in cases of bypass utility failure. Schneider Electric also helps increase the UPS system’s lifespan by up to three times the projected life of alternatives to lead-acid (VRLA), thus reducing the gross cost of ownership by 30% to 50%.
