Together we push the boundaries of innovation to deliver decarbonized energy 24/7. Join us and be part of those shaping the energy of tomorrow!

Context of the Supply Portfolio Management (SPM) Strategic Importance

SPM plays a vital role in modeling and hedging energy risks for client portfolios. The function is evolving from locally fragmented teams to a more centralized harmonized approach. Key transformation initiatives include:

  • Establishing a central SPM entity to develop consistent methods and tools
  • Building a collaborative cross-geography SPM community
  • Supporting career growth for portfolio managers
  • Promoting best practices and unified risk representation
  • Implementing scalable automated systems for improved forecasting pricing and contract management

Our teams are committed to fostering a culture of collaboration knowledge sharing and continual improvement ensuring both global alignment and local value creation for ENGIEs clients and stakeholders.

Within SPM the transversal domain TrueWatts is in charge of:

  • gathering people in charge of actuals consumption management
  • sharing good practice
  • build expertise on data modeling and grid error management
  • design the MPD features and support its deployment (MDP is the product in charge of metering data management in Engie)

This domain is composed of several operational Middle Offices in charge of certifying the actuals (balancing and billing volumes) for all Supply processes leveraging the use of MDP.

Additionally the core product team is the small data science team in charge of designing the core features that will be industrialized by MDP IT teams. The features support all the grid data imperfections: holes in timeseries inconsistencies between sources etc. From the detection of inconsistency patterns to the correction algorithm this team is charge of settling the common framework use through all the B2B countries.

About the TrueWatts Team within SPM

The TrueWatts domain is a dynamic and cross-functional teams at the heart of Supply Portfolio Management (SPM) dedicated to delivering excellence in actual consumption management. Our mission is to bring together experts of dedicated Middle Offices to certify actual consumption volumesbalancing and billingfor every Supply process.

The TrueWatts domain plays a pivotal role in designing and deploying the MPD (Bee Stone metering data management product) for ENGIE. We support its implementation by developing innovative features and ensuring best practices are shared across all operational Middle Offices making full use of MPDs capabilities.

At the core of TrueWatts is a focused data science team that creates and refines the foundational algorithms powering the MPD curation pack. We tackle challenges such as gaps in time series data inconsistencies between sources and grid data imperfections. Our work ranges from detecting patterns of inconsistency to building correction algorithms establishing a robust framework that is applied across all ENGIEs B2B operations worldwide.
