Capgemini Engineering’s mission to unleash human energy through technology for a more inclusive and sustainable future directly aligns with Itron’s purpose to create a more resourceful world. Working together, Capgemini and Itron help provide a better customer experience and foundation for utilities to move toward a smarter grid.

With operations and clients spanning the globe, Capgemini partners with utilities and their ecosystems to transform and manage business by unlocking the value of technology with its global expertise of next-generation smart metering, smart grid. The result is a successful rollout, a modular architecture and continuous innovation toward a smarter grid. At this year’s Itron Inspire, attendees had the opportunity to learn more about Capgemini and the work they do to help utilities meet the needs of today and prepare for the challenges of tomorrow, using smart technology.

With the recent passing of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the utility industry is expected to quickly adapt to factors such as worsening climate disruption, increasing cyberattacks, an aging grid infrastructure and more. The addition of smart technology, as Brian Bronson, president of Americas and APAC, Capgemini says, is the key to making this accelerated transition possible and is where their sector-specific expertise comes into play.

Capgemini helps utilities embrace key technologies such as the cloud, edge analytics, data and artificial intelligence, and also works to improve cybersecurity and environmental impact. Utilities that integrate smart technology experience benefits including access to high-quality data for more informed decisions, residential energy management systems, building resilience and reduced environmental impact, to name a few. Simply put, the Capgemini’s digital solutions enable utilities to work smarter, not harder.
