While at the Smart Grids Europe conference last week, I had a talk with Daniel Cumming of Schneider Electric. Schneider are one of the world’s oldest and largest companies in the energy space having been founded in 1836 (yes 18!) and with revenues of ?15.79bn in 2009 [PDF].

We chatted about two of Schneider’s offerings in the Smart Grid space – their remote telecontrol product set and their power monitoring products.
