To undertake a digital transformation spanning the company’s operations across 24 business units in 70 countries required a substantial staffing investment from the company. The company and C3 AI trained over 70 employees—including more than 20 data scientists—on the C3 Agentic AI Platform.
Across the five lines of business, the company works with C3 AI on a roadmap for business and residential solutions, decentralized solutions for cities and territories, gas operations, and electricity production
To assess use cases and build the roadmap, the energy company and C3 AI established a center of excellence (CoE) comprised of over 30 personnel working on applications and servicing the business. The company also established a Digital Factory with a staff of 100 experts to propagate technologies and expertise worldwide.
Today, the company’s applications ingest data from over 1 million connected devices at intervals ranging from every 1 to 15 minutes. The number of connected devices will grow to more than 5.5 million devices by 2020. To connect to the diverse devices used in operations, the C3 Agentic AI Platform provides support for a variety of device interfaces such as SigFox, DCS, EtaPRO, SCADA and Linky.
