Schneider Electric Partners with New Nissan Stadium

In an exciting development for both sports fans and the Nashville community, Schneider Electric has announced its role as the Official Energy Management Partner for the upcoming Nissan Stadium, the new home for the Tennessee Titans. This partnership is not merely a business transaction; it embodies a shared vision for sustainability and innovation within the realm of sports and entertainment.

The new Nissan Stadium, designed to be a state-of-the-art facility, will encompass approximately 2.1 million square feet and is projected to generate over $33.7 billion in economic impact over the next three decades. As Schneider Electric embarks on a five-year engagement beginning with the stadium's opening in Spring 2027, the company aims to implement cutting-edge energy solutions that will significantly enhance the building's efficiency and sustainability.

Aamir Paul, President of North America Operations at Schneider Electric, highlighted the critical role sustainability will play in the new stadium. He stated, “Sustainability will be an important piece of the new Nissan Stadium, and Schneider Electric will play a critical role in bringing that vision to life.” The integration of advanced energy management technologies will optimize stadium operations and minimize its environmental footprint, anticipating a 20% reduction in energy consumption and a 30% reduction in downtime.

Innovative Technology Deployment

Schneider Electric plans to deploy several technologies manufactured in Tennessee as part of this initiative. These include clean, uninterruptible backup power systems, advanced IT infrastructure, and integrated Building Management Systems. These advanced systems will bolster energy efficiency while providing enhanced operational control over the stadium's infrastructure.

Dan Werly, Chief Operating Officer of the Tennessee Titans, emphasized the importance of energy performance, given the stadium is expected to welcome millions of fans each year. He remarked, “Ensuring optimal energy performance is a key priority in the new Nissan Stadium designed to host not only Titans games but also events for Tennessee State University and various world-class sporting and entertainment events.” The commitment to energy efficiency aligns well with the Titans’ mission of excelling both on the field and in the community.

Community Impact and Local Investment

Beyond the partnership's immediate technological implications, Schneider Electric's investment in Tennessee signifies a broader commitment to strengthen local economies and communities. Tennessee Governor Bill Lee praised Schneider Electric's investment and noted the creation of hundreds of new jobs through the establishment of a new facility in Wilson County. This venture will not only provide job opportunities but will also enhance America's energy infrastructure, further solidifying Schneider Electric’s position as a leader in the energy management sector.
