Schneider Electric has recently launched a consulting service called EcoConsult for Data Centers, aimed at enhancing the efficiency of data centers, reducing operational costs, and supporting long-term sustainability initiatives. This announcement was made at the Data Center World conference in Washington, DC.
EcoConsult is designed to respond to the increasing demand in the industry for improved uptime, better asset lifecycle management, and lower total cost of ownership. The service includes a thorough evaluation of key infrastructure components, such as power distribution, cooling systems, and server room setups. By identifying inefficiencies and potential risks, Schneider Electric aims to provide actionable recommendations for modernization and preventive maintenance.
Jerome Soltani, Senior Vice President of Services at Schneider Electric, highlighted the importance of the service in tackling infrastructure challenges. He noted, “Maintaining peak uptime while minimizing costs and extending the life of critical infrastructure is paramount in today’s fast-paced digital environment.” EcoConsult provides a comprehensive approach to help operators manage aging infrastructure and uncertainty in operations.
To support this initiative, Schneider Electric brings together a global network of more than 250 consultants, 430 service centers, and 6,500 service professionals. This service aims to deliver consistent and high-quality consulting across various markets. Utilizing the latest digital tools, EcoConsult enhances cooling efficiency, optimizes power distribution, and strengthens cybersecurity measures—critical aspects for modern IT environments.
The timing of this launch is particularly relevant, as approximately 36% of data centers in the U.S. are over a decade old and often lack effective asset management strategies. Without proactive maintenance, these facilities face escalating operational risks and limitations in performance. EcoConsult aims to provide data center managers with customized, forward-looking strategies that can extend the longevity of their infrastructure while adapting to new technologies and workloads.
