Solution

Despite their ambitions, Axpo faced several challenges in scaling AI. Critical knowledge was scattered across siloed systems, forcing employees to rely on point-of-contact experts and slowing down daily work. Disconnected tools and workflows hindered collaboration between data engineering and ML teams. Growing concerns around data residency and governance underscored the need for a centralized, compliant platform. That’s where Databricks came in. As the energy industry shifts toward decarbonization, utility providers face growing pressure to modernize, not just how energy is produced (e.g., hydro, solar and wind) but also how operations are managed.
