Egypt Vision 2030 was a strategy that sought to build a nation from the grassroots level up, and a critical part of realizing this vision was to realize ambitions to make a regional energy hub. To accomplish this, national production needs to be improved and production efficiency must be enhanced to appropriate levels, taking into consideration commitments to decarbonization and global competition. Improving energy efficiency is the step that needs to be taken for the nation’s objectives to be fully realized.

Schneider Electric highlights the critical need for sustainable data center design to reduce carbon emissions and enhance resilience. Through advanced digital solutions, Schneider aims to optimize energy use and drive sustainability in the data center industry.
