Schneider Electric Launches Data Center Consulting Service

Schneider Electric Unveils EcoConsult for Data Centers to Modernize Infrastructure and Boost Sustainability

Schneider Electric has launched EcoConsult for Data Centers, a new consulting service designed to help data center and IT managers enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and align with long-term sustainability goals. The announcement was made at the Data Center World conference in Washington, DC.

EcoConsult for Data Centers responds to the increasing demand in the industry for improved uptime, better asset lifecycle management, and a lower total cost of ownership. The service offers a comprehensive evaluation of key infrastructure components—including power distribution, cooling systems, and server room design. Through this in-depth analysis, Schneider Electric identifies inefficiencies and potential risks, providing data center operators with actionable strategies for modernization and preventive maintenance.

“Maintaining peak uptime while minimizing costs and extending the life of critical infrastructure is paramount in today’s fast-paced digital environment,” said Jerome Soltani, Senior Vice President of Services at Schneider Electric. “EcoConsult for Data Centers delivers a holistic strategy to help operators overcome aging infrastructure and operational uncertainty.”

Global Expertise and Digital Innovation

Backed by a global network of more than 250 consultants, 430 service centers, and 6,500 service professionals, Schneider Electric’s EcoConsult for Data Centers ensures consistent, high-quality consulting across various markets. The service integrates advanced digital tools to improve cooling efficiency, optimize power system design, and strengthen cybersecurity—key focus areas for today’s increasingly complex IT environments.

A Timely Solution for Aging U.S. Infrastructure

The launch comes at a critical time, as nearly 36% of U.S. data centers are over a decade old and often lack comprehensive asset management strategies. These aging facilities face increasing operational risks and performance limitations without proactive maintenance and modernization. EcoConsult aims to address these challenges by helping managers implement customized, future-ready strategies that extend infrastructure lifespan and prepare for emerging technologies and workloads.

With EcoConsult for Data Centers, Schneider Electric is positioning itself as a key partner for data center operators looking to modernize their infrastructure, reduce risk, and achieve long-term sustainability.
