Agreement to outline an ESG and Climate Strategy for Ducab Group
The Ducab Group is elevating and expanding its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and decarbonization strategy following its appointment of Schneider Electric’s Sustainability Business as a strategic advisor.
This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the wider UAE Net Zero Strategy 2050, setting new benchmarks in sustainable industrial practices and elevating Ducab’s clean energy solutions portfolio.
Schneider Electric will work closely with Ducab Group to develop a comprehensive ESG and Climate Strategy aimed at achieving significant carbon emissions reductions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
Sustainability measures
These efforts will build on the company’s existing sustainability measures, which include two solar PV plants that power half of its Jebel Ali factory and the Blade Smart Factory Project – an Industry 4.0 driven facility optimizing operations.
Ducab is making tangible progress in reducing carbon emissions, optimizing resource use, and advancing its ESG objectives, thereby strengthening its standing as a leader in sustainability within the energy industry.
“We remain determined to support the global energy transition by deploying all our innovative products and solutions across all sectors, and this marks a crucial milestone in that journey,” stated Charles-Edouard Mellagui, CEO, Ducab Cables Business.
“This collaboration exemplifies Schneider Electric’s commitment to empowering companies to meet the challenges of today while securing a cleaner, more resilient future. It also marks a significant step towards implementing sustainable practices across Ducab’s operations,” remarked Amel Chadli, President, Gulf Countries, Schneider Electric.
