Since its establishment in Xiamen in 2005, Schneider Electric, with its world-leading green intelligent manufacturing technology and innovative research and development strength, has made a lot of contributions to the development of Xiamen's power transmission and distribution industry and economy. As an important R&D center, manufacturing center and supply chain base for Schneider Electric to serve the global medium voltage market,
On April 26, Xiamen Torch Electric Industrial Park (Phase I), namely Schneider Electric Xiamen Industrial Park, was successfully held. It is understood that after the completion of the project will become the largest medium voltage production base of Schneider Electric in the world, which is not only an important reflection of Schneider Electric deepening the "multi-center" strategy and continuously strengthening the layout in China, but also another heavy practice of Schneider Electric driving a new engine of development with high-end manufacturing and innovative research and development, and empowering Xiamen to build a new highland of high-quality development.
Mr. Wu Chengzao, Party Secretary and Chairman of Torch Group, Mr. Yin Zheng, Executive Vice President and President of China and East Asia of Schneider Electric, Mr. Xu Shaofeng, Senior Vice President and Head of Energy Management Medium Voltage and Service Business in China of Schneider Electric, Mr. Zhang Kaipeng, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Supply Chain in China of Schneider Electric, The event was attended by Vincent Bruneau, Vice President, Real Estate and Sustainability, Schneider Electric Global Supply Chain China.
With pioneer power to store the future potential, enabling Egret Island to "new"
Since its establishment in Xiamen in 2005, Schneider Electric, with its world-leading green intelligent manufacturing technology and innovative research and development strength, has made a lot of contributions to the development of Xiamen's power transmission and distribution industry and economy. As an important R&D center, manufacturing center and supply chain base for Schneider Electric to serve the global medium voltage market, the newly started Xiamen Industrial Park covers a total area of more than 140,000 square meters, more than double the size of Schneider Electric's original Xiamen factory, and is expected to achieve double production capacity in the next five years. Some of them will supply overseas markets covering countries and regions along the "Belt and Road", and while practicing Schneider Electric's own innovation mission of "in China, benefiting the world", the "Xiamen Intelligent Manufacturing" will be transported to the world.
Not only that, in the construction process, Schneider Electric also actively practiced the green and low-carbon concept, and enabled the needs of the sustainable development era with digital innovation ideas. After the completion of Schneider Electric Xiamen Industrial Park, will be equipped with a number of global unique automation, intelligent, flexible production lines, can quickly meet the needs of the whole industry including new energy, data center, electronics and other market demand; At the same time, the overall installed photovoltaic capacity in the park will reach 12MW, and the new plant will also achieve a bright result of 100% green electricity self-supply through "photoelectric storage", creating a new model of digital and green sustainable park, helping Xiamen to promote "new" with "wisdom" and run the "acceleration" of new quality productivity.
Planting investment fertile soil, "old friends" more layout Xiamen
Since its roots in China 37 years ago, Schneider Electric has led the way with the "China Center" strategy and continued to strengthen the overall layout in China.
After years of deep development, Schneider Electric now has a deep accumulation in many aspects of innovation and development, manufacturing, supply chain management, green operation and so on. For example, in terms of research and development innovation, Schneider Electric has set up a medium voltage switch product technology research and development team in Xiamen, committed to the agile market insight and strong innovation strength, enabling China's research and development results to feed overseas markets. In terms of technological innovation, the epoch-making sulfur hexafluoride (SF6-Free) environmental protection medium voltage switchgear is the lean production from Xiamen factory; EvoPacT HVX, a new generation of medium voltage intelligent vacuum circuit breaker developed by the local research and development team and the global research and development team, was also launched in Xiamen in 2022.
Xu Shaofeng, Senior Vice President, Energy Management Medium Voltage and Service Business Head of Schneider Electric in China, said: "Xiamen has always played a pivotal role in China's economic reform and development, and is one of the important strategic locations for Schneider Electric in China. The world's largest medium pressure production base settled in Xiamen, is one of our important measures to strengthen the overall layout in China and deepen local cultivation. Based on the new starting point, Schneider Electric will join hands with all partners in the future to help Xiamen accelerate industrial innovation, accelerate the formation of new quality productivity, build new competitiveness and lasting momentum for the high-quality development of Xiamen's economy, and promote the high-quality development of Chinese industries."
