Sector Overview

Energy

Over the last years, we have supported several leading European energy companies in modernising and scaling their digital operations. Our teams worked across SAP ecosystems while also delivering custom development in Java and .NET to extend, integrate, and stabilise critical business processes.

Client Highlights

Below is a selection of projects that illustrate the type of engagements and impact we’ve had in this industry. They highlight how we’ve supported major energy companies in strengthening core systems, modernising integration layers, and improving operational efficiency across complex technical environments.

EdF – Électricité de France

Supported multiple SAP modules and custom middleware integrations, contributing to improved operational continuity and reduced system downtime. Our consultants helped streamline maintenance workflows and supported large-scale SAP enhancements, ensuring alignment with compliance and performance requirements.

EDP – Energias de Portugal

Delivered SAP development and support across finance, asset management, and operations. In parallel, our engineers built complementary components in Java and .NET, enabling better interoperability between SAP and EDP’s internal platforms. The involvement included custom API layers, reporting features, and process automations.

Engie

Provided SAP engineering and custom application development to enhance data flows across distributed systems. We helped reinforce the robustness of Engie’s operational tools by combining SAP development with targeted extensions written in Java and .NET, ensuring scalability and long-term maintainability.

Conclusion

Working in the energy sector means dealing with rigid processes, legacy constraints, and mission-critical systems. Over the years, we’ve learned how to modernise these environments safely, respecting the stability they require. And most importantly, we’ve found ways to introduce innovation exactly where it creates measurable value.

Modernising technology in the energy sector isn’t just a technical challenge, it also requires understanding regulatory frameworks, long decision cycles, and the operational realities of teams who rely on these systems every day. Our experience has shown that meaningful progress comes from bridging legacy platforms with modern engineering practices, ensuring that innovation enhances reliability rather than disrupts it.

We’ve also learned that true improvement happens incrementally: strengthening data flows, reducing manual steps, improving integration layers, and gradually replacing bottlenecks with scalable architectures. By combining SAP expertise with custom development in Java, .NET, and cloud-ready solutions, we help energy companies evolve their systems with confidence, preparing them for the demands of the next decade.

Now, Velv’s natural next step is to support these organisations in embracing AI and automation, helping them unlock new efficiency gains and future-proof their operations.
