Executive Summary
In the complex landscape of the global energy market, innovation alone is no longer enough to excel at multi-site energy management. True transformation requires a strategic partnership where cutting-edge technology and service expertise work in perfect lockstep. This case study explores the collaboration between Sedico and Energis—a partnership engineered to redefine multi-site energy performance on a continental scale. By replacing manual friction with automated intelligence, Sedico successfully scaled its operations to manage 30,000+ sites, setting a new benchmark for multi-site efficiency and global energy oversight.
Scaling Without Friction: Defining the New Standard for Multi-Site Energy Oversight
As a specialized “One-Stop Shop” for real estate administration and cost management, Sedico centralizes fragmented location-based costs, transforming systemic complexity into a strategic advantage. By managing everything from energy procurement to complex invoice flows, Sedico removes “operational noise,” allowing its clients to focus on core growth. However, as the company reached the milestone of managing over 30,000 sites across Europe in 2023, they faced a critical hurdle: the heavy burden of manual oversight.
The Challenge: Scaling Multi-site Energy Management
For Sedico, achieving efficient multi-site energy management was a major hurdle during their rapid international expansion. Their operational frameworks had to evolve to maintain a competitive edge. Without a fundamental shift in technology, Sedico risked having its growth outpace its ability to deliver quality service.
- The Need for Global Scalability: With an international customer base that was "strongly growing," Sedico required a unified solution to manage energy monitoring and invoice verification across all European borders.
- Inefficient Invoice Verification: Existing manual methods were not built for a 30,000-site volume; the team needed a way to "scale up on a larger basis without losing efficiency."
- A Search for Strategic Partnership: In a rapidly changing landscape, a simple software vendor was insufficient. Sedico sought a partner that could "help them grow over time and adapt to the changing needs of the market."
The Solution: Energis.Cloud – A Strategic Engine for Multi-Site Success
Sedico chose Energis.cloud to serve as the technological backbone of their global operations. This move replaced manual friction with an automated intelligence layer designed for massive portfolios.
- Automated Invoice Processing: The platform automatically computes necessary invoice checks, allowing Sedico to find errors and identify optimization opportunities at a pace impossible with manual methods.
- Automated Anomaly Detection: To manage 30,000+ sites with precision, the platform acts as an “inbox for inefficiencies.” It automatically identifies energy waste—such as consumption during non-operational hours or power peaks exceeding contract limits—and sends instant alerts so teams can resolve issues immediately.
- Closed-Loop Action Management: Beyond just identifying problems, the solution integrates a workflow for Action Management. This allows Sedico to track optimizations from detection to resolution, ensuring every insight translates into measurable savings for the client.
- Flexible & Seamless Integration: Through robust API integrations, Energis.cloud synced perfectly with Sedico’s existing tools, creating a “Single Pane of Glass” view of their entire portfolio.
Watch how Sedico transitioned from manual data entry to a centralized, automated oversight of 30,000+ sites. This video showcases why a strategic partnership—rather than a simple software purchase—was the catalyst for Sedico’s global success in multi-site energy management.
"This partnership helps us manage and reduce the energy costs for our clients and, in the end, their carbon footprint."
"What sets Energis.cloud apart is their incredible support team. They are not just great professionals; they are always there to help with any doubts or problems."

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the partnership with Energis.cloud "strategic" rather than just a software purchase?
A software purchase provides a tool, but a strategic partnership provides a scalable framework for growth. For Sedico, this means a collaborator that helps industrialize their energy governance with strong technical support and the flexibility to build custom features that adapt to their specific needs.
Does this solution integrate with existing Sedico tools?
Yes, the platform uses robust API integrations to sync perfectly with existing workflows, eliminating data silos and manual friction.
How does the platform impact Sedico’s clients directly?
It translates raw data into measurable financial savings and audit-ready carbon reporting, helping clients meet both budget and Net-Zero goals.
Can the platform manage energy data across different European countries?
The system is built for global scalability, centralizing energy monitoring and invoice verification across European borders into one platform. By using API integrations and a data-agnostic approach, it standardizes fragmented data from different grid operators into a single, consistent view.
