September 14, 2019 – Redwood City, CA and Houston, TX – C3.ai, a leading enterprise AI software provider for accelerating digital transformation together with global energy leader ENGIE, today announced the launch of Smart Institutions, an AI-powered, holistic Energy-as-a-Service software solution for large institutions.
With Smart Institutions, organizations including universities, corporate campuses, cities, and hospitals, can proactively and automatically manage their buildings and energy assets to increase sustainability and decrease energy expenditures to reduce costs. The software has first been deployed at The Ohio State University as part of a plan to reduce energy use across the 485-building campus in Columbus.
In 2017, Ohio State Energy Partners, a consortium of ENGIE North America and Axium Infrastructure, signed a 50-year Comprehensive Energy Management Contract with The Ohio State University. Ohio State Energy Partners looks to drive energy savings and enable end-to-end optimization of the campus energy infrastructure to achieve a 25 percent improvement in energy efficiency over 10 years.
“When we launched our work with The Ohio State University two years ago, we looked forward to advancing new possibilities, from improving ways to heat, cool, and power the campus to collaborating on potentially transformational technologies and services that someday could be shared far beyond Columbus,” said Gwenaëlle Avice-Huet, President and CEO, ENGIE North America and Executive Vice President in charge of ENGIE’s Global Renewable Business Line. “Collaborating with C3.ai on the development of Smart Institutions has enabled us to create our own new technology solution for ENGIE customers, leading the way for other institutions looking to make meaningful progress when it comes to energy and sustainability.”
“C3.ai is accelerating digital transformation for leading organizations across every industry,” said Ed Abbo, President and CTO, C3.ai. “An Energy-as-a-Service software solution powered by the C3 AI platform, Smart Institutions is enabling cutting-edge organizations to set the standard for energy transformation initiatives.”
Through ENGIE Smart Institutions, C3.ai and ENGIE can use AI to help large institutions achieve their sustainability and financial objectives through:

February 22, 2018 – Houston, TX – In a move that underscores the company’s position as a leader in clean energy supplies, ENGIE North America announced today that it will supply renewable energy certificates (RECs) to the 2018 Smart Energy Decisions Innovation Summit held at Barton Creek Resort & Spa in Austin, Texas. The three-day event, held Feb. 25 through Feb. 27, brings together commercial and industrial executives in a unique and intimate setting to address a variety of energy management and sustainability challenges.
The Green-e® certified RECs represent the environmental attributes or benefits associated with a specific quantity of energy generated from a renewable source, such as solar or wind. Organizations that use RECs to offset their indirect greenhouse gas emissions help fund the operation and development of domestic sources of renewable energy.
Ken Cowan, Vice President of Solutions Sales and Marketing at ENGIE NA, said the company takes great pride in supporting the summit and working alongside Smart Energy Decisions to promote sustainable strategies.
“Smart Energy Decisions is highly regarded as a go-to resource on a broad range of research and knowledge on energy management and renewable energy,” he explained. “Their coverage of these subjects – along with the insights they deliver at the annual summit – naturally complement the broad-based capabilities and expertise of ENGIE. We’re pleased to green the energy consumption of an organization that shares in our commitment to clean energy.”
ENGIE helps large commercial and industrial customers achieve economic value through sustainable strategies that blend supply, demand, and operations opportunities with innovative deal structuring and funding. Leveraging an “energy as a service” model, the company is leading the transformation to cleaner, smarter, more innovative solutions that help customers reduce energy costs and consumption while enhancing environmental commitments and ensuring reliable supply.
John Failla, Founder and Editorial Director of Smart Energy Decisions, said he couldn’t be more pleased to have the backing of an industry leader like ENGIE.
“The supply of renewable energy certificates is a direct reflection of where we believe energy management is headed – toward a more sustainable future for everyone,” said Failla. “It’s an honor to have the support of ENGIE as we work to keep clean energy generation and consumption at the forefront of commercial and industrial energy strategies.”
The Smart Energy Decisions Innovation Summit offers a forum for knowledge, best practices, and new ideas on advancing energy efficiency and renewable energy sourcing for large energy management programs. The annual event is operated by Smart Energy Decisions, a web-based information resource dedicated to delivering commercial and industrial consumers news, analysis, research, and opinions that drive more informed decisions.
