About
Go Green in the City is an international case challenge for university business and engineering students around the world to find clever solutions for energy management.
Until recently, energy was a trivial thing: not too expensive, without limits, and with no major technology evolution. Today, energy has become scarce, expensive and is undergoing a technology revolution. The energy sector is now re-inventing itself. There will be more investments in the sector in the next 25 years than there has been since the birth of electricity at the beginning of the 20th century! But the type of electricity we will have will not be the same as the one we have had in the past century. We will have to balance the need for increased requirements for electrical power, with social progress and environmental protection. As a global specialist in energy management, Schneider Electric has the vision, the portfolio, and the commitment to make the most of the energy innovation opportunities.
Take the opportunity to create an idea for intelligent energy management in the city! We are looking for talented students who want to compete against other students from all over the world.
We are offering 200 students the chance to participate in our case challenge - and as a part of this get a chance at being shortlisted for an interview for our internship program, or for job opportunities! In the second phase we will fly the best 25 teams (50 people) to Paris to compete in the Go Green in the City final.
How to apply?
Pair up with a team-mate to apply. Show us a creative presentation of your idea for intelligent energy management in your city. Use any format, such as a one-minute video, two-pages of text or plenty of pictures.
Take a chance – join the challenge!
