Schneider Electric Named Europe’s Most Sustainable Corporation in Corporate Knights’ New Ranking

(IN BRIEF) Schneider Electric has been named the Most Sustainable Corporation in Europe by Corporate Knights, topping the inaugural Europe 50 ranking of over 600 publicly listed European companies. This recognition follows its earlier title in January 2025 as the World’s Most Sustainable Corporation. The Europe 50 list uses ESG-focused criteria including carbon productivity, clean revenue, and board diversity. Schneider Electric’s dual achievements highlight its long-standing commitment to driving sustainability through digital innovation, transparent practices, and global collaboration to help partners and customers lower their environmental impact and reach their sustainability goals.

(PRESS RELEASE) RUEIL-MALMAISON, 9-Jun-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Schneider Electric, a global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, has been named the Most Sustainable Corporation in Europe by Corporate Knights. This distinction crowns Schneider Electric as the top performer in the first-ever Europe 50 ranking, a comprehensive assessment of over 600 publicly listed European companies based on sustainability performance.

This latest accolade follows Schneider Electric’s recognition in January 2025 as the World’s Most Sustainable Corporation, also awarded by Corporate Knights through their prestigious Global 100 list. The dual recognitions underscore Schneider Electric’s deep-rooted dedication to sustainability and its influential role in shaping a low-carbon, equitable future across global markets.

“Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do,” said Esther Finidori, newly appointed Chief Sustainability Officer at Schneider Electric. “Being named Europe’s Most Sustainable Corporation is an inspiring validation of our commitment to purpose-driven leadership. We strive to create measurable, lasting impact through innovation, transparency, and strategic partnerships that help build a more inclusive and sustainable world.”

The Europe 50 ranking leverages the same data-driven methodology used in the Global 100, evaluating companies against a rigorous set of ESG performance metrics such as carbon productivity, clean revenue, gender diversity on boards, and sustainability-focused capital investments. The ranking draws from companies within the STOXX Europe 600 Index and the 100 largest European firms by market capitalization.

These recognitions highlight Schneider Electric’s continued leadership in helping customers reduce emissions, improve energy performance, and meet evolving sustainability targets. Through its portfolio of digital technologies and smart energy solutions, Schneider Electric enables businesses and communities worldwide to accelerate their own sustainability journeys.
