At a time of disruption and change in the energy sector, data use and sharing at scale allows companies to meet their pressing challenges and drive decarbonisation.
"At a time of disruption and change in the energy sector, data sharing allows companies to meet their pressing challenges. It enables them to digitise, increase efficiency, make better decisions, expand collaboration across their ecosystems, build trust, create new revenue streams and most of all to meet the challenge of decarbonisation.
Organisations need to achieve data democratisation, ensuring that everyone inside and outside the company has access to the data required in their working and daily lives. On the positive side, energy companies are able to access more data than ever before, from an ever-increasing variety of sources, inside and outside their organisation.
However, successfully harnessing data brings its own challenges around technology, governance and culture. Given the growing importance of data, we wanted to understand how mature the sector is, and its progress towards data democratisation. We therefore conducted this in-depth research, partnering with E.DSO and GEODE to survey distribution system operators (DSOs), transmission system operators (TSOs), energy producers and others from across the European energy ecosystem.
The aim is to begin a conversation around data maturity and provide energy players with insights and recommendations on how to leverage data to underpin the sector moving forward."
