Iberdrola migrates key commercial systems to cloud with DXC's help.

Iberdrola, a global energy leader, has partnered with DXC to modernize its critical systems through a multi-year project. The collaboration involved migrating the company's main commercial systems to the cloud, transforming its operations to thrive in a rapidly changing energy market. This project is considered one of the largest and most complex technology modernization initiatives in the Spanish energy sector.

Madrid, Spain — Iberdrola, a global energy leader, has successfully completed a multi-year project to modernize its core business systems in partnership with DXC Technology. The transformation involved migrating 180 terabytes of data and over 30 million lines of code from a legacy mainframe environment to the Azure cloud, marking one of the largest and most complex IT modernization projects in the Spanish energy sector [1].

By leveraging DXC's expertise in automation technologies, Iberdrola has significantly enhanced its operational efficiency, agility, and innovation capabilities. The cloud-based platform enables the company to replicate its model seamlessly across other countries while ensuring compliance with local regulations, a critical aspect in the highly regulated energy sector [2].

The modernization project has resulted in greater automation, more responsive customer service, reduced costs, and opportunities to integrate AI technologies and services. Sergio Merchán, Global CIO of Iberdrola, noted that the transformation is a crucial milestone in the company's digitalization strategy, allowing it to adapt to new business challenges and maintain its global leadership [1].

DXC Technology led the transformation, ensuring continuous updates and improvements to Iberdrola's applications without disrupting day-to-day operations. Alfonso García Muriel, President of DXC Technology Spain and Portugal, emphasized that the goal was to make technology a growth engine for Iberdrola, enabling it to be more agile, efficient, and future-ready [1].

The modernization project also aligns with Iberdrola's commitment to sustainability and digital transformation by reducing energy consumption and optimizing resources. This initiative is a significant step forward in the global energy transition [1].
