Predictive Analysis on the Worldwide Energy Sector

Project description

Business intelligence for the energy sector

Highly volatile and unpredictable, the energy market (oil, gas and renewable energy) may respond positively to new methodologies. For instance, Big Data analytics can lead to more accurate projections of the energy sector. In this context, the EU-funded PAWES project will develop innovations that allow to set up energy indicators based on publicly available information. PAWES will consider the accuracy and reliability of the information provided, as well as the reduced delays in delivering them. The project is coordinated by France’s Kayrros, an information provider within the business intelligence market for the energy sector. With the services developed through PAWES, it will be able to support trading activities and strategic investments and address a wide range of stakeholders such as oil companies, commodity department of investment banks, oil trading companies, refineries, or equity funds, hedge funds and energy-intensive industries.

Objective

The context in the energy sectors is particularly favourable to adopting new methodologies, especially in view of the arising opportunities and developing knows-how in big data analytics, in order to answer the constant need for more accurate projections of the energy sector’s perspectives (Oil & Gas and renewable energy as well). Kayrros offers services radically different from the technologies currently used in the energy sector and the Fintech applied to energy markets. The novelty of Kayrros’s approach is mainly related to technological innovations. These innovations allow to set up energy indicators solely based on publicly available information, possibly charged but available to anyone. Kayrros has thus developed alternative methods to bypass the lack of relevant straightforward information. The accuracy and reliability of the information provided, as well as the reduced delays to deliver them, are at the core of Kayrros business model. As an information provider, Kayrros is part of the Business intelligence (BI) market for the energy sector. Its services aim to support trading activities and strategic investments, and address a wide range of stakeholders such as oil companies, commodity department of investment banks, oil trading companies, refineries, or equity funds, hedge funds, energy intensive industries, etc. With this SME Instrument project, Kayrros’ ambition is to boost the development of the company so as to become a worldwide leader in the business intelligence for the energy sector. The project will result for Kayrros in 50 m€ of increased revenues by 2021 and 87 job creations.
