SAP Cloud Solutions Propel India's Energy Industry Toward Sustainable Future
India's oil, gas, and power sectors are embracing SAP's cloud ERP solution, 'RISE With SAP,' as part of the nation's push towards sustainability and innovation. This comprehensive shift aims to boost operational efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and align with India's commitment to clean energy practices.
With India ranking as the world's third-largest energy consumer, this transition underscores a broader strategy towards energy self-sufficiency and cleaner resources. Key initiatives like the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) drive modernization across power and gas networks. Leading companies such as Assam Power Distribution, Indradhanush Gas Grid, and Purba Bharati Gas are leveraging 'RISE With SAP' to meet the rising demand for sustainable energy solutions across industries and households.
Rakesh Kumar, IAS, Managing Director, Assam Power Distribution Company Limited, a public limited company owned by the Government of Assam, said, “With RISE with SAP, we’re confident that we’ll be able to drive revenues, operational efficiencies, system modernisation, and become more customer-centric. We’re excited to leverage SAP technology to steer our company towards sustainability and be the catalyst for the holistic growth of the state of Assam by powering agriculture and industry and lighting rural and urban homes.”
“IGGL has implemented state-of-the-art cloud technology from SAP since September 2022, which has been instrumental in enabling us to reach this goal by enhancing operational efficiency, facilitating data-driven decision-making, fostering innovation, nurturing good governance, and strengthening internal financial control across the entire value chain,” said PK Mohapatra, CFO, Indradhanush Gas, a joint venture of IOCL, ONGC, GAIL, OIL, and NRL.”.
Manuj Kumar Baruah, CEO, Purba Bharati Gas Pvt. Limited, a joint venture company of Assam Gas Company Limited, OIL India Limited, and GAIL Gas Limited, said, “As a joint venture company having resources from multiple organisations, we recognised the need for a comprehensive solution. Adopting RISE with SAP has served as a backbone across business operations, helping us integrate multiple departments and functions into a unified platform that can scale as per changing environments or requirements.”
Vikas Sharma, Vice President & Business Head Public Sector, SAP India, added, “The energy sector in India is at an inflection point, transforming with the widespread adoption of cloud technology. By integrating new-age technology on the cloud, SAP is committed to enabling this sector with clean energy, improved air quality, enhanced public health, and a more sustainable environment.”
