According to the “2023 Digital Future Development Report” released by the Viewpoint Index Institute, China’s real estate industry is mainly faced with two major problems in digital transformation: high application costs and lack of coordination among stakeholders, resulting in slow digital development of the industry as a whole. The view index found that leading real estate developers generally have a high level of identification with digitalization and enter the digital transformation earlier. However, most enterprises still lack sufficient awareness, resources and funds for digitalization, and digital start is slow, usually through outsourcing or ecological cooperation to carry out digital construction. Therefore, it is particularly important for real estate developers to choose a trustworthy digital service provider.

In more than 30 years of deep cultivation in China’s real estate market, Schneider Electric has evolved from a component supplier providing safe and reliable terminal distribution solutions to a representative of a leading enterprise helping the digital transformation of the industry, and has worked with many real estate partners and accumulated rich application experience. At the first Viewpoint Digital Future Development Conference in 2022, Schneider Electric jointly released the “2022 Digital Operation White Paper” with the Viewpoint Index to deeply understand and analyze the development status and challenges of real estate and related industries, and provide valuable reference samples for the digital transformation of real estate enterprises. Based on Schneider Electric’s leading experience at home and abroad, this paper deeply explains Schneider Electric’s case practices such as the first zero-carbon park in Europe and the digital operation of Swire Commercial Real Estate, and points out the future direction and action suggestions for the digital transformation of housing enterprises from multiple business types such as smart park, commercial real estate and smart home.

In the face of the current dual-carbon goal, sustainable high quality and many other development requirements, digital answer is about the future proposition, but also the world’s biggest “certainty” in the next 10 years. As a trusted digital partner in the real estate industry, Schneider Electric will continue to explore digital innovation with industry expertise, and work together to promote the development and upgrading of China’s real estate with leading digital solutions and rich practices.
