Infosys, a global pioneer in next-generation digital services and consulting, announced its collaboration with RheinEnergie, a pioneering German energy service provider, to help enterprises drive their energy transition and sustainability agenda forward.
The collaboration will leverage the Infosys Energy Cloud, which is part of Infosys Cobalt, a set of services, solutions and platforms for enterprises to accelerate their cloud journey, and Infosys Topaz, an AI-first offering using generative AI technologies. RheinEnergie's extensive experience in providing energy services will help enterprises monitor, control, and optimise their energy landscape while meeting decarbonisation goals.
Energy transition by developing solutions
Infosys will help RheinEnergie enforce cutting-edge keys in cloud, data, AI
As part of the collaboration, Infosys will help RheinEnergie implement cutting-edge solutions in cloud, data, artificial intelligence, and Industry 4.0 to help enterprises cut costs, improve energy efficiency and step up their sustainability efforts.
Together they will help decentralise the energy transition by developing solutions that connect renewable generation, storage, energy markets and grids, energy-consuming assets, and empower enterprises to choose the best low-carbon energy sources. Additionally, organisations will be able to decide on the optimal investment, maximise profits from their own on-site renewable energy generation systems, and successfully navigate the changing energy market.
Innovative technological and digital solutions
The collaboration will focus on RheinEnergie customers in key sectors, including travel and transportation (passengers and freight), commercial real estate and the manufacturing industry. It will aim to deliver actionable recommendations to help enterprises boost their energy efficiency by up to 30–40%.
Stephan Segbers, Chief Sales Officer and member of the board, RheinEnergie, said, "RheinEnergie firmly believes that innovative technological and digital solutions are intrinsic to achieving the 'Energiewende' and the 'Wärmewende', Germany's planned transition to a low-carbon, nuclear-free economy."
