Connected planning for an industry in transition

Energy suppliers, particularly public utilities companies, face a dual challenge: they must actively shape the energy transition while remaining financially stable. Rising regulatory requirements, volatile energy prices, dynamic tariff obligations, and the pressure to decarbonize make planning more complex than ever.

At the same time, competition is intensifying with lower barriers to entry, higher churn rates, and sustained price pressure squeezing margins and customer loyalty.

With Jedox, energy companies replace static budgets and isolated planning silos with integrated, scenario-based planning. By connecting operational energy drivers directly to financial planning, Finance can:

  • Respond faster to change
  • Identify risks early in volatile markets
  • Evaluate investments and business models with confidence
  • Make timely, data-driven decisions

Jedox for the energy sector: Transparency, integration, and confidence

For energy suppliers, planning in Excel and working with fragmented data often leads to error-prone forecasts, limited transparency, and slower decision-making. Jedox brings all planning and analytics processes together in one unified environment, giving Finance a clear, reliable foundation for faster, more confident decisions.

With Jedox, you connect operational and financial data in a single source of truth. Your team benefits from:

  • Granular analyses at tariff, channel, and customer segment level
  • Scenario planning for volatile energy markets, from price spikes to regulatory interventions
  • AI-powered forecasts and predictive analytics for sales volumes, load profiles, and customer behavior
  • Full traceability and audit trails for internal and external reporting obligations

Energy planning in Jedox

Reporting that reflects the complexity of the energy sector

Energy companies deal with data from Sales, Operations, and Finance on a daily basis. And this data often comes from different systems, which rarely creates a single coherent picture.

With Jedox, a unified reporting layer emerges that delivers exactly that. From multi-level contribution margin analysis to group reporting for senior management, every role gets the figures it needs: current, reliable, and without manual effort.

  • Less time required for consolidating data, more time for analysis and decision-making
  • Role-appropriate reports: from key account managers to the executive board
  • Drill-down from company level to individual customer level

Proven success with energy suppliers

Together with the bdg consultants, we have created a powerful planning tool that gives us a comprehensive overview of our P&L, balance sheet and liquidity. This enables us to fully assess our current situation and steer the company towards the future.
