Accelerate time-to-market and reduce operating costs of your renewables projects
In a world in full energy transition, renewable energy projects are essential but face complex challenges: fragmented processes, siloed communication, and loss of critical knowledge. The Pega platform offers a comprehensive solution that centralizes information, optimizes workflows, and significantly reduces implementation times.
Our unique approach allows us to create a centralized file for each project, accessible to all stakeholders, which eliminates operational silos and ensures complete visibility of progress, from initial development to operation and maintenance.
Discover how the major players in the renewable energy sector can transform their projects with Pega, reducing lead times, reducing the risk of errors, and capitalizing on the knowledge acquired.
The renewable energy sector faces structural obstacles
The development of renewable energy projects is marked by specific challenges that significantly slow down their implementation. These challenges lead to measurable consequences: 30 to 40% of projects are unsuccessful, mainly due to administrative complexity and funding problems. The lack of a single source of truth, and the difficulty of capitalizing on past experiences worsen, this situation, especially in the context of international expansion.
Process complexity
Projects go through four main phases (development, construction, operation, maintenance) with particularly long cycles - 4 to 7 years for development, 1 year for construction, and 20+ years for operation. This duration exposes projects to considerable risks of delays and abandonments.
Working in silos
The diversity of the professions involved (geologists, salespeople, ecologists, lawyers, engineers) creates communication barriers and operational inefficiencies. These multidisciplinary teams often use different systems, without an overall vision of the project.
Data dispersion
Critical information is disseminated in a multitude of applications and documents, from CRMs to Excel spreadsheets, mapping tools, and specialized software.
Complex regulatory compliance
Interactions with numerous state administrations and services require rigorous monitoring of administrative files.
Compromised time management
Legal remedies, common in 90% of projects, can freeze a development for 2 to 3 years, often resulting in the loss of critical knowledge with the departure of the initial teams.
Pega Platform
The central hub for your renewable energy projects
The Pega platform is revolutionizing renewable project management by establishing a unique case for each project, a real central repository that connects all the people, data, and systems involved. With Pega, you transform your approach from operating in silos, with fragmented information and manual processes, to a collaborative platform centered on data that standardizes practices while adapting to local specificities.
Pega supports every phase of your renewable energy projects
The Pega platform manages the entire lifecycle of your projects from end to end, providing specific functionalities adapted to each stage.
Development
(4-8 years)

Pega implementation illustration
This video demonstrates how the Pega platform transforms renewable energy project management by creating a unique, centralized case file for each project. Addressing the major challenges in the sector – long cycles, multiple stakeholders, and administrative complexity – Pega offers an integrated solution that eliminates data fragmentation and operational silos. The video presents a concrete example of a project lifecycle implemented in Pega, showing how different stakeholders (project manager, ecologist, legal counsel, design engineer) use the interface to collaborate effectively. You'll discover how centralizing information leads to significant reduction in execution timelines (30-40%), better communication between stakeholders, and complete traceability, ensuring knowledge preservation throughout the project.
