- 500K Sq. Ft.
Facility to Boost Manufacturing and Sales of Battery Management Products.
- Schneider Electric
strengthens its commitment to ‘Make in India’ with this state-of-the-art
facility
Bangalore, July 10, 2025 : Schneider
Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and
automation, today announced its plan to develop a manufacturing facility for
its Schneider Electric IT Business at Horizon
Industrial Park Hosur, near Shoolagiri, Tamil Nadu.
Spread across 500K square feet, the new facility aims to enhance
Schneider Electric’s capabilities in manufacturing, sales, and trading of
Battery Management Products (BMS) including Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
systems, Power Distribution Units (PDU), cooling products, and other electronic
accessories. Strategically located along the Bangalore–Chennai National
Highway, the upcoming Grade A industrial facility offers seamless connectivity
to both Bengaluru and Chennai markets, enabling enhanced distribution and
operational efficiencies.
The development will be executed in two phases in collaboration with
Horizon Industrial Parks, a leading integrated logistics and industrial
infrastructure provider backed by Blackstone Real Estate funds. The first phase
will be a dust-free facility featuring a modern office space and extensive
tenant improvements. These enhancements include expanded industrial power
capacity, advanced fire safety systems, and optimized workspace planning for an
initial workforce of 1,500, encompassing both direct and indirect employment.
The second phase will build a high-spec, custom facility tailored to Schneider
Electric’s advanced operational needs and is expected to be completed in 7
months
“We are happy to partner with Horizon Industrial Parks as we advance
our commitment towards an ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat,’" said Deepak
Sharma, Zone President, Greater India, MD and CEO, Schneider Electric India.
"This collaboration underscores our commitment to sustainability, efficiency,
and operational excellence. The new facility will significantly enhance our
manufacturing capabilities and allow us to incorporate cutting-edge technology
and sustainable practices. With this investment, we aim to empower businesses,
boost operational efficiency, and contribute meaningfully to the ‘Make in
India’ initiative.”
Horizon Industrial Park Hosur is pre-certified ‘Platinum’ by Indian
Green Building Council (IGBC). Schneider Electric’s new facility will integrate
multiple eco-friendly features, including roof insulation with glass wool,
rooftop solar panels for enhanced thermal efficiency, a 12-meter clear height
PEB design with skylights for natural lighting, and advanced ventilation
systems.
In addition, EV charging stations, HVAC controls, and smart light
sensors will be deployed as part of the facility’s integrated BMS. Solar
rooftop panels are planned for the next phase of development, further boosting
thermal efficiency and reducing carbon footprint.
Urvish Rambhia, Principal at Blackstone Real Estate, said:
“We are pleased to partner with Schneider Electric and support its long-term
growth in India. We are committed to providing innovative, tailored, and
high-quality warehousing solutions for global and local corporations looking to
expand their presence in India.”
With this strategic expansion, Schneider Electric continues to
reinforce its long-term investment in India’s manufacturing sector, driving
innovation, efficiency, and sustainability in the industry.
