Snowflake Launches Energy Solutions for the AI Data Cloud to Accelerate Shift to a Lower-Carbon Future

Organizations such as ExxonMobil, Expand Energy, IGS Energy, Powerex, PG&E, Siemens, and Sunrun are turning to Snowflake to secure critical infrastructure, improve operational resilience, and navigate volatile markets with real-time insight. This launch also builds on Snowflake’s new partnership with SAP, enabling energy companies to combine SAP finance and supply chain data with operational and field data on Snowflake, so insights derived from both business and operational systems directly inform grid operations, asset planning, and commercial performance.

To further support customers, Snowflake is also introducing 30+ new partner-built solutions that run natively on the AI Data Cloud.

CARTO, for example, is delivering new cloud-native spatial analytics built directly on Snowflake, enabling energy companies to perform geospatial analysis and build interactive maps without moving data across systems. By embedding spatial intelligence into Snowflake workflows, CARTO helps teams better understand assets, infrastructure, and geographic risk as part of day-to-day operational decision-making.

Itron, a global utility technology provider, is introducing an advanced Grid Planning solution built on Snowflake to help utilities manage modern grid complexity. The solution features industry-leading 8,760-hour power flow analysis that can model grid performance years into the future at highly granular levels — delivering results in hours instead of months — so utilities can plan infrastructure more accurately, avoid unnecessary costs, and improve long-term reliability.

Siemens, a global technology company, is highlighting its joint Siemens Industrial Edge integration with Snowflake, which enables energy and industrial companies to securely bring data from decentral industrial assets into Snowflake for advanced analytics and AI. Building on this foundation, Siemens is introducing new analytical capabilities, which also allow teams to interact with operational data using natural language to gain faster insight into performance, maintenance, and operational issues. Together, these capabilities help energy companies improve reliability, reduce costs, and make more informed decisions across complex, distributed operations.

These new partner-built solutions support critical energy use cases such as grid planning, asset health, and operational forecasting, underscoring the momentum Snowflake is seeing with customers and partners across the energy sector. Combined with Snowflake’s easy-to-use platform and built-in governance, they help companies unify data and apply AI across everything from asset performance to network optimization so teams can get started faster and deliver impact sooner.

“Data is the control plane for the future of energy,” said Fred Cohagan, Global Head of Energy, Snowflake. “Whether it’s keeping the grid secure, protecting critical assets, or balancing supply and demand in volatile markets, energy companies need a trusted data foundation that can activate AI everywhere. Snowflake is helping the world’s energy leaders modernize how they manage data and harness AI to democratize insights so that anyone, not just data scientists, can act on intelligence in real time. This shift allows organizations to do more with less, optimize existing assets, and deliver stronger sustainability and shareholder outcomes.”

Technology is also unlocking the value of more than 100 years of historical energy data. With Snowflake Intelligence, technical and non-technical employees — from field engineers to analysts — can use natural language to get trusted answers in seconds. Together, this marks a shift from democratizing data to democratizing decisions.
