Schneider Electric announced its partnership with Vancouver International Airport (YVR) to improve operational reliability and workplace safety, supporting the airport's goal to become net zero carbon by 2030. Stemming from a decades-long relationship where Schneider Electric products were integral to the airport's major expansions, this partnership solidifies a history of strong collaboration between the two entities. Schneider Electric's proposed modernization of YVR's existing installed products will significantly cut capital costs for the airport with minimal operational disruption.

With Schneider Electric's end-to-end solutions and services, the digital transformation of YVR's energy system will play a large role on operational reliability and helping to reduce emissions, turning energy savings and environmental gains into business growth. One of the first projects Schneider Electric embarked on was to eliminate operational risks and improve occupational safety by upgrading the airport's install base. Schneider Electric will continue to help YVR with their Energy Management Information System, a solution using Schneider Electric's Resource Advisor and EcoStruxure Power Operation for carbon emission monitoring build on top of existing monitoring system, which will help the airports efforts toward their 2030 net-zero goals.
