      A leading renewable energy platform in India was rapidly expanding its solar, wind, and battery energy storage portfolio. However, critical operational and business data remained fragmented across ERP systems, SCADA platforms, HR applications, energy analytics tools, spreadsheets, and departmental systems.

      To support its growth ambitions, the organisation worked with KPMG to launch a large-scale AI-led transformation program designed to unify enterprise data, digitise operations, and embed intelligence across the renewable energy value chain.

      KPMG in India established a cloud-native digital foundation and delivered 21 AI-enabled use cases spanning Solar, Wind, Operations & Maintenance, and BESS functions, creating a connected, insight-driven renewable energy enterprise.


      The challenge

      Rapid business growth increased operational complexity across the renewable energy portfolio.

      Critical information was dispersed across multiple technology platforms, limiting visibility, slowing decision-making, and creating dependence on manual processes.

      Key business functions including land lease management, project monitoring, compliance tracking, maintenance planning, inventory management, reporting, and revenue reconciliation, relied heavily on spreadsheets and manual interventions.

      At the same time, large volumes of operational and asset data generated across solar, wind, and storage sites were not being fully leveraged to drive predictive insights, automation, or enterprise-wide optimisation.



      Our approach

      KPMG in India designed and implemented an enterprise-wide digital transformation program focused on creating a unified digital core while delivering high-impact operational improvements across the business.

      The transformation began with the establishment of an enterprise data platform capable of integrating information from ERP, SCADA, IoT devices, HR systems, energy analytics applications, and operational platforms into a single source of truth.

      KPMG in India’s approach included:
      • Enterprise Data Foundation

        Centralised integration of operational, financial, asset, and workforce data
