Schneider Electric, a global leader in energy management and automation, has been named the World’s Most Sustainable Corporation for 2025 by Corporate Knights.
It is the first company to top the Global 100 ranking twice, having also earned the distinction in 2021.
“This second title from Corporate Knights, along with other key ESG recognitions, affirms our long-term positive impact,” said Schneider Electric CEO Olivier Blum.
Schneider Electric secured the top spot due to its strong sustainability initiatives, including gender diversity in leadership, innovative energy solutions, and linking executive pay to sustainability targets. It also excelled in decoupling energy consumption from business growth and investing significantly in sustainable R&D.
In the Philippines, Schneider Electric mirrors its global commitment through impactful initiatives.
It was named the most Gender-Inclusive Workplace by the 2024 UN Asia-Pacific Women’s Empowerment Principles Awards and continues to drive energy efficiency with its Smart Distribution Center expansion in Cavite.
“As the world’s most sustainable corporation for the second time, we must accelerate efforts to transform emerging markets like the Philippines into sustainable landscapes that foster progress and innovation,” said Schneider Electric Philippines president Ireen Catane.
