DUBAI –  Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, has announced the availability of two new categories of UPSs from APC by Schneider Electric.

The first is Smart-UPS Lithium-ion, which offers trusted, premium power protection to ensure network and data availability. Designed for local edge environments and micro data centers, the Smart-UPS with Lithium-ion ensures consistent and reliable connectivity at the most critical moments.
