(powercloud, Offenburg 12/10/2020) Today, powercloud announces its partnership with Publicis Sapient, marking a significant power play in the digitalization of the energy sector.
The energy industry is on the cusp of fundamental change. New business models and technologies are disrupting, and how we all create, store, trade and share energy is rapidly transforming, forcing companies to evolve across all aspects of their business.
Publicis Sapient, the digital transformation arm of Publicis Groupe, is a specialized partner to the Energy & Commodities industry. The organization helps large, established energy and utility companies to get digitally enabled, both in the way they work and the way they serve their customers, to best meet the challenges set out by a new breed of digital native new entrants.
“Today, the energy industry is experiencing exponential change. Organizations need to embrace innovation to transform how they engage with customers and manage their business for success both today and in the future.

“The energy transition, digitization, and increased competition on account of new green options are forcing energy suppliers to develop completely new business models — and this can’t be done with outdated IT systems. With our digital solution, we are able to rapidly support existing and new suppliers, network and metering point operators soon as well as municipal utilities in completely automating their processes,” comments Marco Beicht, CEO of powercloud.
