Schneider Electric released new research during Climate Week NYC 2026 showing that AI-enabled buildings can reduce energy use by up to 22% compared to traditional building controls. The study reveals annual utility savings ranging from $13,600 to $49,300 per building at current commercial rates, which can help organizations lower operating costs sustainably and scale these benefits across larger portfolios. Additionally, the carbon emissions avoided by AI systems are more than 100 times greater than the environmental impact of the AI system itself. This technology has significant potential to enhance sustainability efforts while also providing substantial financial savings for businesses.
