Schneider Electric recently convened over 2,500 industry leaders and innovators at its Innovation Summit North America 2025, focusing on accelerating electrification, automation, and digitalization. The event highlighted the critical role of these technologies in building a more resilient and sustainable energy future, addressing the growing demands on the U.S. power grid.
The summit underscored the urgent need for infrastructure upgrades and innovative solutions to meet the projected increase in electricity demand. Schneider Electric’s research indicates the U.S. must add over 1,000 terawatt hours of electricity. The discussions centered on how advanced technologies can optimize energy use, improve grid stability, and integrate renewable energy sources effectively.
