Investment rationale
The company offers a wide range of solutions designed for homes, businesses, and data centres, with energy efficiency at the core of its strategy.
In the residential sector, Legrand’s connected home systems allow homeowners to monitor and control their energy use. This leads to real, measurable reductions in electricity consumption and lower utility bills. For non-residential buildings such as offices, hospitals, and schools, Legrand provides integrated energy management and automation solutions. These help facility managers optimize lighting, heating, cooling, and power usage, which significantly lowers operating costs and reduces carbon emissions. In data centres - one of the world’s most energy-intensive sectors - Legrand’s innovative power and cooling infrastructure solutions make it possible to achieve greater energy efficiency, supporting the growth of sustainable digital services.
67% of Legrand’s revenue comes from products and systems that directly promote energy efficiency, thereby aligning closely with the impact objectives in our Energy Transition theme.
