9、the Web.AwardMore on the WebIntroduction 3SDreport.schneider-2009 was an intense year.A crisis of unprecedented scale confronted the global economy and reshaped the world in a way unseen before.While mature economies were challenged to their core;new economies,in particular China,emerged as the worl

10、ds growth engine,showing an impressive degree of resilience.Amid the crisis,the energy challenge also topped the worlds political,environmental and economic agendas,thus creating new opportunities for our generation.With this backdrop,Schneider Electric had two options.We could hunker down and wait

11、for the storm to pass;or we could use the crisis as an opportunity to transform our company and emerge stronger.We chose the latter,with passion and determination.We accelerated the implementation of the company strategy;rolled out our new company programme,One,launched in January 2009,and focused o

12、n three key transformations to make Schneider Electric the global specialist in energy management.*In a nutshell,One was our compass as we navigated through the storm,implemented our strategy,and supported the resilience of our business.For Schneider Electric,2009 was a year of real strategic accele

13、ration.2009 has also been the year where weve conducted one of our biggest acquisitions with Areva T&D.In January 2010,together with Alstom,Schneider Electric signed the fi nal agreement with Areva for the acquisition of its Transmission&Distribution activity.When approved by the relevant competitio

14、n authorities,the acquisition of Arevas Distribution activity will allow us to build an even more comprehensive offer in medium voltage and power automation.It will strengthen our access to worldwide utilities and electro-intensive customers and enhance our position in the middle of the Smart Grid t

15、echnological revolution.*In 2009,we also continued to develop the fundamental DNA of our company:dedication to our customers,investment in innovation,commitment to sustainable development,and engagement of our people.All of these are a source of pride and motivation for each of our associates.*Susta

16、inable development is at the core of our strategy.In essence,energy management is a key contributor to CO2 emission reduction.Beyond that,we are committed to sustainable development in our ethics,environmental practices,and engagement in every society where we operate.In this domain,Im particularly

17、proud of what we do with BipBop,a holistic programme geared at bringing electricity to the 1.6 billion of the planets population who are deprived of it,innovating with dedicated products for the bottom of the pyramid,inserting underprivileged youngsters in careers as electricians,and helping entrepr

18、eneurs to set up their business.*The effort and commitment of everyone associated with Schneider Electric made our achievements possible in 2009,despite the downturn.We are very thankful for the support of all stakeholders of our group:our customers,our employees,our shareholders,our suppliers,and t

21、ll continue our strategic transformation with our company programme One.We will accelerate our move in energy management,drive quality in both products and solutions offerings,and all this with the leadership of our fi ve businesses.We will continue to develop Schneider Electric at the centre of the

22、 Smart Grid technologies:renewable energies,supply-demand optimization,energy effi ciency,electrical vehicle,and intelligence and communication everywhere.These changes will revolutionize the way people distribute and control energy,from Power Plant to Plug.More than ever,we are committed to helping

23、 our customers make the most of their energy.With them,all over the world,we are pioneering the era of Intelligent Energy.Introduction 5Message from Henri LachmannChairman of the Supervisory Board2009 was the most diffi cult year for business since the 1929 stock market crash.Most economies contract

58、he energy challengeDemographics,urbanization,a rapidly growing middle class,climate change.A new balance must be found among these often contradictory trends.At Schneider Electric,we help the world achieve the balance that is so vital to our collective future.With operations in more than 100 countri

59、es,the world is our concern.Schneider Electric was one of the first companies in our industry to sign the Global Compact back in 2002.We now have more than 1200 of our suppliers involved.In addition,we have launched our innovative BipBop Programme:Business,Innovation,and People to provide and develo

60、p access to energy to the Base of the Pyramid.It reflects Schneider Electrics commitment to creating a virtuous circle combining business,innovation,and social responsibility.In this framework,we provide solutions for the two billion people in mature countries who need to achieve more while using fe

61、wer resources,and people who aspire to a reliable access to energy.Last year,the Copenhagen conference on climate change did not achieve all that was hoped for.However,the conference did raise awareness of the urgency for action among political and business leaders worldwide,and that was a significa

62、nt milestone.Finding a new balanceGilles Vermot Desroches,SVP of Sustainable Development,Schneider ElectricUnderstanding the energy challenge 11 Can you describe Gram Vikas?Gram Vikas is a rural development organization that works only in the villages,only in rural areas.We have several fields of wo

63、rk,including renewable energy and micro-hydro.We are experimenting with one small biomass gasifier to see whether that will work for small villages.We are in the field of biodiesel.And we are also in solar.We have already started a project to provide three lights and one lantern all solar-powered to

64、 indigenous people in 100 000 homes located in off-the-grid villages.Energy solutions with 100%inclusionJoe Madiath,Founder and Executive Director,Gram VikasGram Vikas is a non-governmental organization(NGO)that has been working since 1979 to bring about sustainable improvement in the quality of lif

65、e of poor and marginalized rural communities,mostly in Orissa,India.Joe Madiath speaks about the organizations work and its importance to the communities it serves.To further the dialogue on the state of sustainability,we provided several stakeholders with the opportunity to share their thoughts wit

66、h us.12 2010 Business and Sustainable Development Report SDreport.schneider-What is your assessment of the Copenhagen summit?Copenhagen was an important first step.For the first time,all of the worlds major nations,including China,the United States,India,Brazil,and the European Union,participated in

67、 a common process to combat climate change.For the first time,all heads of state and government agreed to limit the temperature increases to 2 C,in line with the recommendations formulated by the IPCC*scientists.For the first time,the developed countries have made clear,long-term financial commitmen

68、ts in favour of the most vulnerable countries.In short,the battle for future generations has only just begun.Why should businesses get involved?All economists will tell you:tomorrow,the most competitive companies will be the most carbon-and energy-efficient businesses.Behaviours are changing.Over th

69、e past two years we have implemented several major incentive programmes to orient consumers toward the most energy efficient products:extension of the sustainable development tax credit,introduction of the interest-free eco-loan to finance private individuals energy efficiency renovations,and a gree

70、n bonus on cars and more,etc.Finally,as part of the multi-party Grenelle environmental conference,France has invested heavily in a new growth model,i.e.,green growth,based on carbon and energy efficiency.Tomorrows economic battle will play out over the next two to three years.What are your thoughts

71、on energy for rural populations?If you want to join mainstream society,energy is important.And the best form of energy is electrical.But the indigenous people that we work with are living in remote villages,unclaimed by the government and unwanted by society.They have not had very much access to ene

72、rgy,and even if somehow the grid does reach them,it doesnt stay because either a transformer fails,there is a theft of conductors,or some defect happens.There is no one to take up repairs,so things fall into disuse.In the state of Orissa,nearly a quarter of the population are indigenous people.It is

73、 the poorest state in terms of economic wealth,but I think it is the richest state as far as natural resources are concerned.How do you try to involve the population you work with?One thing that sets us apart is that we speak about inclusion.We feel that 100%of the population of a village or a commu

74、nity has to be included.Many of these people have been historically excluded and we do not want to continue the injustice.In whatever Gram Vikas does whether it is watershed,housing,or renewable energy it is our principle to provide 100%coverage of all families of a habitation.We feel that if these

75、things can be done in Orissa,where only 20%of the people have a protected water supply,then they can be done almost anywhere.It is time that we take this model to other parts of India and the world.In fact,we have already started working in Gambia and Tanzania in Africa.Battling for the future Jean-

76、Louis Borloo,French Minister of State for Energy,Ecology,and Sustainable DevelopmentJean-Louis Borloo has initiated the Grenelle Environment conference.This innovative task force has gathered,for the first time,French social,political,and business stakeholders to develop concrete measures for tackli

77、ng environmental issues.Here he shares his thoughts on the state of sustainability.(continuation of the Joe Madiath interview)*Intergovernmental Panel on Climate ChangeUnderstanding the energy challenge 13 What does the UN Global Compact cover?The Global Compact principles address human rights,labou

78、r standards,the environment,and anti-corruption.Traditionally,these issues were not really high on the radar screen of the corporate community,but now the whole landscape has changed in a fundamental way.As business has gone global,and as many of the issues in these areas have not been solved and co

79、ntinue to pose serious challenges,there are opportunities as well as threats and risks for business.What do you expect from companies within the Global Compact?With their power,they also have responsibility.Whether a company completes transactions in a clean manner or not,for example,affects communi

80、ties and the lives of thousands of people.Companies make important contributions to social challenges through their actual business,as well.When an IT company innovates and spreads solutions around the world,it can have a huge positive impact on productivity and thereby help people to escape poverty

81、.It enables us to manage natural resources more efficiently and change lifestyles.So,business,as an actor in the community,through its conduct as well as through its core business activities,can deliver tangible benefits for humanity.How have companies commitments evolved recently?An important point

82、 in the history of these issues has actually been the financial crisis.We have companies that have been convinced by our arguments for a long time,but those joining us now are doing so in a very serious way.Why?Because the core messages we have long been propagating are now much better understood.Fi

83、rst,companies need to focus on long-term value creation,as opposed to only chasing quarterly profits.Second,they need to integrate non-financial issues in their risk and opportunity assessments in a systematic manner.And third,ethics is back.In fact,the financial crisis has validated the value propo

84、sition of the Global Compact.Battling for the future Jean-Louis Borloo,French Minister of State for Energy,Ecology,and Sustainable DevelopmentWhat do you expect from this International Year of Biodiversity?The aim is to engage all players businesses,government services,local authorities,NGOs,and com

85、munity organizations on another major front that attracts less attention but is critical for our future:the protection of plant and animal species.According to scientists,the rate of extinction of species is currently 100 to 1000 times higher than the normal rate.One-third of the known species are t

86、hreatened and 60%of the ecosystems have been seriously damaged over the past 50 years.It is high time,as the famous astrophysicist Hubert Reeves said,to do something about the planets sufferings,which are the source of profound disappointment.Throughout 2010,we are going to increase our efforts nati

87、onally and internationally.We have plans to develop a new maritime strategy,create a High Agency for Nature,launch a major programme to restore contiguous habitats,and much more.Focusing on long-term value creationGeorg Kell,Executive Director,UN Global CompactCreated 10 years ago,the UN Global Comp

92、 create innovative solutions for managing energy intelligently is not.Schneider Electric embraces this challenge,and is committed to helping people around the world make the most of their energy right now.What is the energy dilemma?Consider the coexistence of these issues facing our planet:The world

93、 has a limited amount of energy generation capacity.The worlds appetite for energy is insatiable.While the demand for electricity will double by 2030,there is an urgent need to cut our CO2 emissions a by-product of energy generation by a much more dramatic factor to avoid climate changes in the next

94、 40 years.One-third of the world suffers from energy poverty;people are off the grid and unable to derive the health,safety,and educational benefits that come from having access to energy.The bottom line is this:we need to achieve more while using less.The challenges we face are unprecedented but so

95、 are the opportunities.The time to act is nowAs individuals,as companies,and as nations,we have to make a choice.Do we drive to a new Age of Efficiency or do we risk entering an era of energy anxiety,marked by political turmoil,lack of education,and more money spent on mitigating the impacts of clim
