• With the help of Digital@Utility, energy suppliers can determine their digitalization and sustainability status, compare themselves with other companies and take concrete measures by identifying the potential for improvement.
• Together with Kearney, BDEW and VSE and based on data from over 100 energy suppliers, we provide an up-to-date picture and practical case studies from Enel S.p.A., E.ON, Statkraft, Gasnetz Hamburg, E.ON Grid Solutions, AS Sadales tīkls, and swb AG.
• Energy suppliers of all sizes from all stages of the value chain from Germany, Switzerland, and 11 more countries worldwide took part in Digital@Utility 2023.
• All participants received a individual feedback report based on their results. The generation of the reports was automated via Slidefab.

• This year’s study highlights the potential synergies between digitalization and sustainability as a key to a climate-neutral future. In this context, almost every fifth participating company already defines the goal of becoming climate neutral in terms of direct emissions by 2030.
