The ABB Formula E World Championship, the world’s leading all-electric motorsport series supported by ABB, is set to return to the iconic street circuit of Monaco. This marks another milestone for the championship as it continues to demonstrate the convergence of high-performance electric mobility, smart energy systems, and advanced industrial control technologies.

The Monaco street race is one of the most prestigious events in the Formula E calendar, showcasing cutting-edge electric racing performance in a highly urbanized environment. The return of the race reinforces the long-term collaboration between ABB and Formula E in promoting sustainable mobility and electrification solutions across global industries.

From an industrial automation perspective, Formula E serves as a real-world testbed for energy management systems, power conversion technologies, and digital monitoring solutions—areas closely aligned with ABB’s core expertise in electrification and motion control. The championship’s focus on efficiency, battery optimization, and smart energy distribution mirrors challenges faced in modern industrial facilities, smart factories, and infrastructure projects.

As global industries continue transitioning toward decarbonization and digital transformation, events like Formula E highlight how high-performance electrical systems can operate under extreme conditions while maintaining efficiency and reliability. The Monaco circuit, known for its tight corners and demanding layout, further emphasizes precision control and energy optimization—principles that are directly relevant to industrial automation systems such as PLCs, drives, and process control platforms.

For industrial equipment manufacturers, system integrators, and automation solution providers, the continued visibility of ABB Formula E strengthens awareness of electrification technologies that are increasingly being adopted in manufacturing, energy, and transportation sectors.
