Schneider Electric partnered with the

(FBBA) to sponsor an economic forum
entitled ‘What is the Economic Blueprint

This includes innovation seminars to
keep its partners and end-users abreast
of the latest design, technology and

the aspirations of Brunei Vision 2035.

up the awareness of the importance of
digital and sustainability measures to
its end-users in Brunei. “Power industry,
for example, is experiencingaparadigm

decentralisation,
decarbonisation,
digitisation with exponential increase
in consumption of electricity,” said
Schneider Electric Country General
Manager for Brunei, Enoch Tan. ”We
are leveraging on advances in Internet
of Things (IoT), mobility, sensing,
cloud, analytics and cybersecurity
technologies to transform the power
management industry. By acting on
data in real time from any number of
IoT – enabled sources, our customers
can improve operational and energy
efficiency and bring their operations
directly into the future.”
To address these needs, Schneider
Electric has developed EcoStruxureTM
– an architecture that offers open
platform to partners and end users so
they can develop and integrate digital
solutions.
Schneider Electric is very present
in every market segment and
industry in Brunei which includes
hotels, healthcare, banking, telcos,
commercial and residential buildings,
