New technology platform

SAP and E.ON are developing a new process and technology platform for the energy group's network operators. Together, the two partners want to establish a new benchmark in the German grid business. The aim is to use SAP cloud solutions (S/4 Hana) to make core billing and market communication processes more efficient and standardized across the Group.

This means that the E.ON Group's energy suppliers, metering point and network operators can exchange information faster, more precisely and more easily. The processes will be standardized and existing different billing and market communication systems of the regional E.ON units will be brought onto the new platform.

Thanks to consistent data, standard solutions and best practices can be used and the costs for individual in-house developments can be reduced. The initial impetus for the introduction of the new technology at E.ON is the integration of Innogy into the Group.
