Energy transition and utilities

The energy transition is not just a generation-defining challenge. It’s an opportunity to build a rejuvenated economy, a fairer society and a healthier place to live, powered by clean, affordable and abundant energy.

The energy and utilities industry has a pivotal role to play, with sustainable energy supplies and innovative services fundamental to every government, business and citizen’s efforts to achieve net-zero.

Capgemini is at the heart of the global energy transformation. We help organizations to define their strategic direction and put in place governance structures and delivery plans that turn vision into tomorrow’s ground-breaking services and solutions.

“Helping energy and utilities organizations to harness the vast economic and societal potential of the energy transition and build a better future is our passion and purpose”
