Schneider Electric will become the Official Energy Technology Partner of McLaren Racing. Together, they will develop and deploy energy technology that enables peak performance in the most demanding environments, whether it’s delivering robust power solutions trackside at race circuits around the world, or back at base at the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, UK. At the heart of the partnership is a shared culture rooted in data intelligence, accelerated innovation, and engineering excellence.
Schneider and McLaren Racing will build on their supplier relationship spanning more than 20 years, solving hard energy problems where performance and consistent running are non-negotiable. This will include optimising existing assets in and around the wind tunnel, manufacturing facilities, IT data centres and beyond, with resilient systems to reduce energy consumption. This will enable electrification through advanced energy technologies, and leverage digital twin technology to create data insights to enhance efficiency and sustainability.
Zak Brown, CEO of McLaren Racing, said: “This partnership builds on a strong foundation and reflects our shared commitment to innovation and energy efficiency. By combining Schneider’s expertise in energy technology with McLaren’s pursuit of performance, we’ll explore new ways to make our operations smarter and more efficient.”
Olivier Blum, CEO of Schneider Electric, said: “Racing is one of the most challenging environments to demonstrate the value of advanced energy and digital technology. McLaren Racing pushes every system to its limits, which is exactly where our expertise in performance, reliability and efficiency makes the difference.”
