Eneva Partners with Accenture and Google Cloud to Transform Brazil’s Energy Sector with AI, Data, and Cloud Innovations
Accenture (NYSE: ACN) and Google Cloud have announced a deepening of their collaboration with Eneva, one of Brazil’s leading integrated energy providers, in a strategic effort to accelerate digital transformation, operational efficiency, and innovation in the country’s dynamic energy market. This partnership is centered on the application of advanced cloud, data, and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to enhance Eneva’s operations, optimize asset management, and strengthen customer engagement, while laying the foundation for long-term sustainable growth.
Brazil’s Shifting Energy Landscape
Brazil’s energy sector is undergoing profound change. The nation’s electricity demand continues to surge, driven by urbanization, population growth, industrial activity, and rising energy-intensive services such as large-scale data centers and AI applications. These trends are placing new pressures on providers like Eneva to deliver energy services that are resilient, flexible, and technologically modern.
In parallel, global energy transition dynamics—such as the shift to lower-carbon energy sources, heightened focus on grid stability, and the rise of distributed generation—are creating opportunities for companies to redefine how they generate, deliver, and manage power. For Eneva, meeting these demands requires more than physical infrastructure investment; it necessitates a digital-first mindset powered by leading-edge technologies.
Recognizing this shift, Eneva turned to Accenture and Google Cloud to help reimagine its operations. Together, the companies are leveraging cloud-native infrastructure, AI-driven analytics, and integrated data systems to transform everything from asset management and maintenance to customer service and corporate decision-making.
Modernizing Eneva’s Core Systems with Google Cloud
As part of the collaboration, Accenture migrated Eneva’s IT and operational infrastructure onto Google Cloud, a foundational step that has improved access to enterprise-wide data and enabled greater system reliability. This migration involved deploying Google Compute Engine to scale computing power on demand, while also implementing advanced Google Cloud solutions for backup and disaster recovery.
By moving to the cloud, Eneva can now securely integrate operational and corporate data streams in real time. This gives managers and engineers a unified view of information that was previously siloed across departments and systems. Whether in exploration and production or in back-office functions, data is now centralized, enabling faster decision-making and improved business resilience.
Driving Asset Optimization and Operational Efficiency
One of the most significant outcomes of the collaboration has been in the area of asset management. By integrating cloud data with exploration and production systems, Eneva is able to optimize maintenance schedules and improve the reliability of critical equipment.
The results have been substantial. Maintenance operators, who previously required extended periods to complete complex tasks, can now execute their work in nearly half the time. Freed from repetitive, low-value activities, employees are empowered to focus on higher-impact responsibilities that drive innovation and operational excellence.
Eneva’s Chief Information Officer, Alexandre Ferreira, emphasized the tangible benefits:
“We’re not only seeing potential in the combination of cloud, data, and AI—we’re already experiencing its transformative power across our business. With Accenture’s deep industry expertise and the advanced capabilities of Google Cloud, we’ve formed the ideal collaboration to drive transformation across our business for years to come. This work is enabling us to serve our energy customers in Brazil with greater precision, agility, and innovation.”
Unlocking Insights with AI and Advanced Analytics
Beyond modernization, Eneva is tapping into the intelligence of Google Cloud’s AI models, including Gemini 2.5, to identify hidden patterns in operational data and generate insights that were not possible with traditional analytics tools. By combining Accenture’s industry knowledge with Google Cloud’s advanced optimization engines, Eneva is unlocking new ways to save time, reduce costs, and anticipate issues before they escalate.
These AI-powered tools enable Eneva to analyze vast amounts of structured and unstructured data, from exploration results to equipment performance logs, to predict maintenance needs, optimize field operations, and increase safety across its facilities. For a company operating in a sector where downtime can translate into significant financial losses, these insights are invaluable.
Strategic Collaboration for Long-Term Transformation
The partnership is more than a technology upgrade—it represents a strategic shift in how Eneva views its future in Brazil’s competitive energy market. By embedding digital transformation into its DNA, Eneva is positioning itself as a technology-driven energy company capable of navigating both current challenges and future opportunities.
Scott Alfieri, Accenture’s Google Business Group lead, underscored the significance of the collaboration:
“Eneva’s journey is a powerful example of what’s possible when deep industry expertise meets cutting-edge cloud, data, and AI technology. By combining Accenture’s experience in cloud technology and energy transformation with the advanced data and AI capabilities of Google Cloud, we’re helping one of the largest energy companies in Brazil unlock new levels of operational efficiency and customer impact. Together, we’re not just imagining change—we’re delivering it.”
Google Cloud also highlighted the broader implications of this work. Victor Morales, Vice President of Global System Integrators Partnerships at Google Cloud, noted:
“We are proud to collaborate with Eneva and Accenture to help transform Brazil’s energy sector through the power of data and AI. This partnership demonstrates how our advanced cloud and AI technologies can help critical industries modernize their operations and deliver more resilient and efficient services to their customers.”
Supporting Growth, Cash Flow, and Customer Value
For Eneva, the measurable results of this transformation extend beyond technical performance. With improved operational efficiency, optimized asset management, and data-driven decision-making, the company is positioned to generate stronger cash flows and reinvest in future growth.
Additionally, Eneva’s enhanced capabilities enable it to serve customers with greater reliability, agility, and innovation—qualities that are increasingly important as Brazil’s energy demand diversifies and competition intensifies. From industrial clients to data center operators, customers can expect more resilient service backed by advanced digital infrastructure.
