Lighting and electrical supplies distributer Elektra Ltd, local distributor for Schneider Electric, has launched the Next Generation of EcoStruxure, the Architecture and Platform for End-to-End IoT-Enabled Solutions at Scale.
The move is part of a drive by Schneider Electric to introduce EcoStruxure in new markets around the world. It comes weeks after the company launched its advanced system, as well as an array of its field services, in Lebanon.
“We are pleased to announce the development of our long-term partnership with Schneider Electric, and this move that brings best-in-class engineering efficiency to Maltese buildings while ensuring optimised building performance, productivity and comfort for occupants,” said Elektra Ltd CEO Thomas Zammit.
“Schneider Electric is bringing to Malta new solutions of its EcoStruxure architecture – the digital backbone connecting best-in-class OT solutions with the latest in IT technology to unlock trapped value in operations and tap into the true potential of the Internet of Things. It is an open and interoperable energy management system for building, grid, industry and data centre customers. It leverages advancements in IoT, mobility, sensing, cloud, analytics and cybersecurity to deliver enhanced value around the safety, reliability, efficiency, sustainability and connectivity of IoT-enabled operations.”
Schneider Electric recently took part in a local seminar alongside Elektra, further highlighting Elektra’s role as official distributor. Speaking about the launch, Walid Sheta, Schneider Electric’s regional cluster head of Northeast Africa and the Levant, said: “We are pleased to bring our EcoStruxure solutions for buildings to Malta because this means offering numerous advances to more customers and partners to re-invent buildings. This advanced system helps enhance energy efficiency as well as integration, operational and engineering efficiency, while improving comfort and productivity of building occupants, which is key to hiring and retaining talent. We believe it will be a great success in Malta.”
Mr Zammit said Elektra looked forward to leveraging connectivity and data to create controls and actionable business insights, with the combined power of analytics and closed-loop applications in Malta.
“Schneider Electric’s products empower customers to augment operations to reach new levels of operational efficiency, sustainability, asset performance and people productivity. We are very proud to be bringing it to the local market.”.
