How does Socomec collaborate with its subsidiaries and partners globally to implement and scale new energy solutions effectively?
Socomec is leveraging its extensive global network of subsidiaries and partners to ensure a localised approach to implementing new energy solutions. This allows us to adapt to regional regulations, infrastructure needs, and market demands.
We have collaborated with our partners to co-develop and scale new energy solutions. This collaboration allows them to leverage each other's expertise and resources to bring innovative products and services to market faster.
What are the main challenges Socomec faces in implementing new energy solutions, and what opportunities do you see in overcoming these challenges?
The demand for new energy solutions is rapidly growing due to climate change concerns and increasing energy costs. Socomec is well-positioned to capitalise on this demand with its innovative product portfolio and expertise.
Technological advancements in areas like energy storage, smart grids, and renewable energy generation are creating new opportunities for us. By staying at the forefront of technological innovation, Socomec can offer even more effective and efficient solutions.
The increasing focus on sustainability creates a favourable environment for Socomec solutions, as they help businesses and organisations reduce their carbon footprint and achieve their sustainability goals. Since 2014, Socomec has chosen to be audited by EcoVadis, an independent agency specialising in corporate social responsibility. The assessment given by EcoVadis has enabled Socomec to identify areas for improvement and to implement appropriate action plans. This continuous improvement demonstrates our determination to act and develop the assessment in a responsible manner.
By continuously innovating, focusing on our ongoing strategic collaboration with our partners and other organisations at the forefront of relevant technologies, and educating our customers about the benefits of new energy solutions, Socomec Asia Pacific can solidify its position as a leader in the new energy solutions landscape.
