JAKARTA - Currently, the aspect of sustainability or sustainability and technology is a unit of global issues that cannot be separated. Sustainability refers to the practice of meeting today's needs without sacrificing the capabilities of future generations.

Meanwhile, technology refers to the tools, techniques, and processes used to make, develop, and produce goods and services as written in the Schneider Electric press statement, quoted by Antara, Saturday, June 24.

One of the solutions that can be applied against global climate change is a series of green technology innovations that utilize new renewable energy sources, reduce energy consumption and protect other environmental assets.

Meanwhile, according to Schneider Electric, realizing a modern house that has sustainability and technology value, there are four challenges that must be overcome immediately.

1. Sustainability

The need for encouragement and education on the importance of implementing the principle of sustainability in building modern houses to reduce the impact of damaging the environment that results in climate change.

2. Resilience or resilience

An example is about the occurrence of short circuits that still occur frequently, both abroad and in Indonesia. For example, cases of electrical short circuits that cause fires, in Europe and the United States alone, at least 3.6 billion euros have harmed homeowners every year.

3. Efficiency

Modern homes have a tendency to consume more electricity, both for devices, supporting equipment for comfort, security, and homework. Energy management and automation need to be implemented to overcome this.

4. Personalization

Because many people spend a lot of time at home, from working to quality moments with their families, the role of technology in the digitalization context is needed to make it happen.

Realizing these four challenges, Schneider Electric established a Home & Distribution business line to realize the dream modern home.

In Schneider Electric's view, modern houses have several components that must be equipped in order to run well.

These components are located scattered and must be integrated in an integrated modern home supply chain management. For this reason, the Home & Distribution business line was established.

This line of business serves more than 10,000 sales outlets worldwide through established distributor networks, including in Indonesia.

This network consists of local distributors, wholesalers, general distributors, and large international groups. This distribution channel tries to understand the needs of end users in providing optimal buying, service and support experiences to modern home consumers.
