The transformation, completed in collaboration with DXC, entailed moving 180 terabytes of data and over 30 million lines of code from a legacy mainframe environment to the Azure cloud. This migration has enabled greater automation, improved customer service, reduced costs, and paved the way for the integration of AI technologies and services [1].
Sergio Merchán, Global CIO of Iberdrola, highlighted the significance of this modernization: "The modernization of our core systems has been a crucial milestone in Iberdrola's digitalization strategy. It allows us to face new business challenges, maintain our global leadership, and quickly adapt to major changes ahead" [1].
DXC Technology led the transformation using automation technologies, ensuring that the company could continue updating and improving its applications without interrupting day-to-day operations. The cloud-based platform enhances process efficiency and enables Iberdrola to seamlessly replicate the model across other countries, while ensuring compliance with local regulations—a critical capability in the highly regulated energy sector [1].
Alfonso García Muriel, President of DXC Technology Spain and Portugal, underscored the impact of the project: "For Iberdrola, we successfully modernized the company's technology to accelerate innovation, all while maintaining seamless business continuity. Our goal was to make technology a growth engine for Iberdrola, allowing them to be more agile, efficient, and future-ready" [1].
The modernization project also reinforces Iberdrola's commitment to innovation and environmental sustainability by reducing energy consumption and optimizing resources—key pillars in the global energy transition [1].
