Schneider Electric to Detail Benefits of EcoStruxure Automation Expert for Water/Wastewater at WEFTEC 2021

• Schneider Electric will unveil the latest version of EcoStruxure Automation Expert to the public for the first time during WEFTEC 2021
• Water-focused universal automation platform brings unprecedented efficiency and flexibility to operations across the Water industry

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Automation architectures have remained fundamentally unchanged for 30+ years. They struggle to accommodate complex business challenges because they were never designed with today's technology in mind. This challenge has greatly impacted Water/Wastewater, increasing operating costs and limiting modernization opportunities.

Advances in machine learning, augmented reality, and the IoT hold great promise to meet the demands of today's agile and digital world. However, realizing this promise is limited by closed automation platforms that make it difficult to integrate third-party components and are expensive to upgrade and maintain.

Kaishi Zhang, Global Director, Product Management at Schneider Electric shares that it does not have to be this way. It’s Water’s turn to embrace the benefits of open-operating platforms. Universal automation is the world of interoperable "plug and produce" automation software components. Learn how this “industrial app store” will allow operators to select from best-of-breed technologies—without regard to vendor.
