Schneider Electric Launches Boost Pro Energy Storage System to Support Europe’s Energy Transition
Global energy technology leader Schneider Electric launched its innovative local battery energy storage solution, Schneider Boost Pro, in the European market in October 2025, designed to help commercial and industrial sites reduce energy costs, lower their carbon footprint, and ensure operational continuity.
Addressing Energy Transition Challenges
With continued electrification and the growing transition from carbon-intensive oil and gas-based production to more sustainable manufacturing approaches, renewable energy now generates 50% of the electricity used in the EU. However, increasing this figure presents challenges due to renewable variability, intermittency, and the need for grid modernization to deliver a flexible and interactive system.
The Schneider Boost Pro battery energy storage system is designed to support commercial and industrial buildings across Europe, with capacity ranging from 200 kWh to 2 MWh. By combining up to 10 units, the system can deliver a total capacity of up to 2 MWh, making it ideal for growing energy demands.
Multi-Scenario Application Value
The energy storage system offers solutions for various application scenarios. In terms of self-consumption optimization, the system stores surplus renewable energy to maximize utilization and increase energy independence. For tariff management, the system charges during off-peak hours when electricity prices are low and discharges during peak hours when prices are high, thereby reducing energy costs.
Additionally, the system can respond to transmission system operator signals to flexibly manage energy use, enabling additional revenue streams while supporting grid stability. For backup power, the system balances energy use across different sites and provides reliable backup power during outages.
Supporting EV Charging Infrastructure
The Schneider Boost Pro battery storage system is suitable for deployment in depot environments to support the charging of heavy-duty vehicles such as buses and trucks, and can be integrated into transit infrastructure such as highways, where reliable and high-capacity charging solutions are essential.
Intelligent and Secure Product Features
The system is certified as “cybersecure by design,” featuring encrypted communication protocols and continuous system monitoring. The system integrates with EcoStruxure Microgrid Advisor, a cloud-based, AI-powered solution capable of forecasting weather conditions, site production, demand patterns, and market conditions, enabling more accurate predictions and optimized decision-making.
In terms of service support, the system begins with expert installation and includes tailored service and maintenance plans, rapid response times, and remote maintenance options to ensure maximum system uptime.
Meeting Future Energy Demands
Anthony Song, CEO of Schneider eStar, stated that by 2030, commercial and industrial buildings will face up to 35% higher electricity demand, driven largely by the deployment of EV charging infrastructure, yet many organizations are constrained by limited grid capacity and intermittent renewable generation.
Schneider Boost Pro empowers businesses to deliver intelligent, flexible energy management through smart battery storage. This is crucial in the new energy landscape as it helps balance the variability of renewable energy sources and reduces pressure on the grid during peak demand. As an electrical safety expert for comprehensive energy storage solutions, Schneider Electric has consistently focused on market demands for years, leveraging deep insights into energy storage technology development and market needs, as well as rich experience in electrification and digitalization, continuously providing innovative solutions for energy transition.
The launch of this product marks an important step for Schneider Electric in supporting Europe’s energy transition and sustainable development, providing critical solutions for distributed energy storage and intelligent grid management.
