How better energy visibility helped teams cut costs and emissions.
A single-view energy platform gave teams one place to track energy use and act to reduce waste.
OPEX savings over 5 years
energy efficiency improvement
countries’ data in one platform
This global energy corporation had plenty of energy data. What it lacked was one reliable way to access and act on it. With its data sitting across systems and operations, it was hard for teams to see where energy was being wasted and where change could make the biggest difference.
The gap mattered as the company decided to improve energy efficiency and move toward a low-carbon future. Working with Publicis Sapient, it brought energy data together in a single-view Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions and Energy Efficiency Platform that made energy consumption visible in real time. Teams could move from piecing together reports to spotting problems and acting on them, turning energy data into a practical, impactful tool.
A key challenge was our client's inability to obtain a unified view of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions data for their operations in 40+ countries. This data was scattered in several regional Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), HSE and other operational systems.
There was also a general lack of analytical tools, which prevented our client from measuring their current state emissions and setting targets for decarbonization and energy efficiency goals. Business confidence in the quality of data was low and there were several siloed efforts to improve data quality.
As well as the need to improve the quality of data for better reporting among internal and external stakeholders, there was an urgent necessity for automating the lengthy process of loading, processing and publishing data.
Publicis Sapient partnered with our client to develop the first global integrated solution that provides a single view of emissions and energy consumption data. The self-serve, cloud-based Greenhouse Emissions & Energy Efficiency Platform identifies high-carbon footprint assets and areas for improvement. The platform integrates data from ERP, SCADA systems, HSE systems and external sources to provide the following capabilities:

Business:
Over the course of five years, our client saw a measurable reduction in their carbon footprint, boosted their operations and drove new investments in areas identified for improvement. The platform enabled our client to comply with evolving regulations by providing alerts when emissions reached regional threshold levels.
The global energy corporation also reduced costs, thanks to real-time, more meaningful energy consumption data, overlayed with external data. The improved quality of emissions and energy efficiency data allowed for better reporting and set the right expectations of results with internal and external stakeholders.
Our client's decarbonization efforts made global headlines, reaffirming their commitment to clean energy while strengthening the loyalty of their customers.
