Schneider Electric has partnered with Apollo Hospitals to deploy advanced power quality and energy monitoring solutions at the Apollo Proton Cancer Centre (APCC) in Chennai. The initiative focuses on strengthening energy infrastructure to ensure reliability, sustainability and intelligence in powering one of India’s leading cancer treatment facilities.
The smart power systems introduced are designed to enhance diagnostic capabilities, minimise unplanned downtime and improve energy efficiency. According to Schneider Electric, these measures can potentially deliver gains of up to 30 per cent. The solutions aim to support Apollo Hospitals in ensuring dependable cancer care while improving efficiency across both clinical and operational areas.
As part of the project, Schneider Electric has installed its PowerLogic ION9000 power quality meters and EcoStruxure Power Monitoring Expert software. These provide continuous, real-time insights into energy conditions across the APCC campus, ensuring uninterrupted power for critical technologies such as proton beam therapy, where precision and uptime are essential.
“At Schneider Electric, we believe healthcare infrastructure demands precision, reliability, and intelligence,” said Nikhil Pathak, VP – Digital Energy and Power Products, Schneider Electric. “Our collaboration with Apollo Hospitals demonstrates how advanced energy solutions can directly support life-saving care. By enabling real-time monitoring and resilient power delivery at the Apollo Proton Cancer Centre, we’re helping build a sustainable, safe, future-ready energy ecosystem that powers clinical excellence and operational resilience.”
“Apollo Hospitals’ strategic partnership with Schneider Electric will be instrumental in fortifying our energy infrastructure with resilience and precision. Leveraging Schneider’s advanced connected technologies and ongoing advisory expertise, we have elevated reliability across mission-critical areas—including our Proton Therapy unit. This collaboration empowers Apollo to optimise energy management in ways that drive operational excellence today, while building future-ready healthcare systems for tomorrow,” said Harshad Reddy, Director Group Oncology & International, Apollo Hospitals.
Beyond improving operational reliability, the partnership also supports Apollo Hospitals’ wider sustainability agenda. The healthcare group is aiming to increase renewable energy use, reduce energy and water consumption by 10 per cent, and cut carbon emissions by 30 per cent across its facilities by 2025.
Schneider Electric is contributing to these goals not only through technology but also through consultancy and long-term energy planning. Both organisations are working together to establish an environmentally responsible and future-focused energy framework for advanced healthcare delivery.
