Iberdrola, a leading global energy company, has successfully completed a major technology modernization project with DXC Technology. The project involved migrating the company's central business systems to the cloud, transforming its operations to remain competitive in a dynamic energy market. The project was one of the largest and most complex IT modernization projects ever undertaken in the Spanish energy sector, involving the transfer of 180 terabytes of data.
Iberdrola, a leading global energy company headquartered in Bilbao, Spain, has successfully completed a significant technology modernization project in partnership with DXC Technology. The project, one of the largest in the Spanish energy sector, involved migrating core business systems to the Azure cloud, marking a crucial milestone in Iberdrola's digitalization strategy.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].
