Schneider Electric, a global leader in energy management and automation, and Positive Zero, a decentralized decarbonization infrastructure business headquartered in the UAE, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to drive the development of sustainable energy solutions.
This collaborative effort aims to accelerate the adoption of clean energy technologies and propel the transition towards a net-zero future in the region.
As part of the agreement, Schneider Electric and Positive Zero will collaborate on various initiatives to advance decarbonization-as-service programs across the United Arab Emirates and the Sultanate of Oman. This includes exploring synergies across distributed microgrid projects, clean mobility solutions, energy efficiency, and sustainability.
