Enterprise-wide data platform delivered in just months.
Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud powering secure, organisation‑wide insights.
Counties Energy is a community-owned electricity distribution business serving ~50,000 customers across South Auckland and northern Waikato. As the energy landscape shifts toward decarbonisation, distributed energy resources, and real-time decision making, the organisation needed a modern data foundation to support its evolving network and customer needs.
Counties Energy faced increasing pressure to modernise its data environment:
A scalable, secure, future‑proof data platform was essential.
Additionally, the presence of various tools and technologies across Australia and New Zealand makes it hard to establish a unified data. The absence of a standard approach to data science also complicates efforts. Prolonged delivery times hinder team productivity, and the current tools are not future proof, which necessitated a comprehensive data transformation initiative.
Partnering with dataengine, Counties Energy rapidly implemented Snowflake, establishing an enterprise-ready data platform within months.
