What are the main challenges the Energy & Utilities industry faces?

The industry faces four key challenges: managing ageing infrastructure and siloed systems, meeting increasing regulatory and sustainability (ESG) mandates, dealing with inaccurate demand forecasting due to climate volatility, and addressing complex customer billing processes that can lead to revenue leakage.

How does Notium help companies with demand forecasting?

Notium uses SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) to deliver advanced, scenario-based models. This includes weather-linked forecasting, which helps companies better adapt to changing energy demands.

Which SAP solutions are used for Regulatory & ESG Compliance?

To simplify regulatory reporting and help companies align with emissions and sustainability frameworks, Notium implements a combination of SAP PaPM, SAP Group Reporting, and SAP S/4HANA Embedded Analytics.

How does Notium help clients manage profitability and infrastructure health?

Notium uses SAP PaPM and SAP Datasphere to optimise rate design and simulate cost scenarios for better financial performance. For infrastructure, it uses SAP Analytics Cloud Planning and SAP BW/4HANA to monitor asset health and operational performance in real-time.

Key challenges

Key challenges in Energy & Utilities

Managing ageing infrastructure and integrating siloed systems

The sector faces significant challenges in maintaining outdated infrastructure while attempting to unify disparate systems, often resulting in increased operational costs and reduced efficiency.

Meeting regulatory pressure and sustainability mandates

Energy and utilities organisations must continually adapt to evolving regulatory requirements and ambitious sustainability targets, which place additional demands on compliance and reporting processes.

Accurate demand forecasting amid climate volatility

Unpredictable weather patterns and climate change make it increasingly difficult to forecast energy demand accurately, potentially leading to inefficiencies in supply and resource allocation.

Addressing customer billing complexity and preventing revenue leakage

Complex billing structures and legacy systems can result in errors and revenue loss, making it essential to implement transparent and reliable billing processes to maintain customer trust and financial stability.
