Accelerating the energy transition with Data & AI

One51 connects operational, asset, customer and market data into trusted platforms for energy decision making.

The energy sector is undergoing one of the most complex transformations in its history. 

The shift to renewables, decentralised generation, and electrification is reshaping how energy is generated, distributed, and consumed. At the same time, legacy infrastructure, regulatory pressure, and rising customer expectations are creating unprecedented operational and strategic challenges.

Behind it all sits a critical issue: Data fragmentation.

Energy organisations are rich in data across assets, networks, customers, and markets - but this data is often siloed, inconsistent, and underutilised.

The result is slower decision-making, reduced visibility, increased operational risk, and missed opportunities to optimise performance and innovate. To navigate this transition successfully, energy leaders need more than data - they need clarity, trust, and intelligent insight at scale.

Testimonial image
“Having a trusted, integrated view of our network data is critical to how we plan and deliver for our customers. The generated assets model has improved decision-making accuracy, transparency, and timeliness, shifting us from a manual annual process to a dynamic model we rely on daily. Partnering with One51 has been instrumental in unlocking our data’s full value and strengthening future network management.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Energy and Utilities

What is the typical first step for an energy organisation working with One51?

The most common starting point is a 90-minute Discovery Session. This gives your leadership team a clear view of the current data landscape, the highest-value opportunities, and what a realistic first engagement would look like - without any upfront commitment.

Can One51 help with AI readiness for energy organisations?

Yes. We offer an AI Readiness Workshop specifically designed for energy sector leadership teams. In 60 minutes, we assess your organisation across six dimensions - strategy, data and technology, people and skills, governance and trust, operating model, and use case value - and give you a clear view of where to start safely.

What data and AI services does One51 provide to energy organisations?

One51 provides end-to-end data, analytics and AI consulting services to energy retailers, distributors, generators and network operators. This includes data platform modernisation and migration, AI strategy and implementation, data governance and compliance, operational analytics and reporting, managed data support, and energy-specific accelerators for assets, reliability, DER, market and customer data.

What is Microsoft Fabric and how does it apply to energy organisations?

Microsoft Fabric is an all-in-one modern data platform that unifies data engineering, storage, analytics and data science in a single environment. For energy organisations, it is particularly well-suited to consolidating operational, asset and customer data at scale, with strong governance and security controls. One51 is a Microsoft Fabric Featured Partner and has delivered Fabric implementations for NSW Government.

Which energy organisations has One51 worked with?

One51 has delivered engagements with Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy and other energy sector organisations across New South Wales. Our work has spanned asset data unification, network management analytics, single view of customer, regulatory reporting, and data platform migration.

How does One51 handle sensitive operational data in energy environments?

We follow strict data security practices including encrypted data in transit and at rest, role-based access control, multi-factor authentication and data minimisation principles. We comply with the Australian Privacy Act and work within your organisation's security and compliance framework throughout every engagement.

Does One51 work with both large energy utilities and smaller retailers?

Yes. Our work spans large network operators such as Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy, as well as energy retailers and market participants. We scale our approach to the size and maturity of the organisation.

Can One51 help with data strategy for the energy transition?

Yes. The energy transition is creating new data complexity - DER integration, EV load forecasting, renewable generation analytics, ESG reporting and AEMO regulatory change. We help energy organisations design data foundations and AI capabilities that are built to adapt as the sector evolves.

What data systems do you integrate with in energy environments?

We have experience integrating with SCADA, ADMS, GIS, AMI smart meter systems, SAP, Maximo, Copperleaf, billing platforms, CRM systems and market systems including AEMO feeds. We take a pragmatic approach to integration - working with what the organisation has rather than requiring a wholesale system change.

How does One51 approach regulatory reporting for energy organisations?

Regulatory reporting in energy requires defensible, auditable data with clear lineage and consistent calculation logic. We design data platforms with governance built in from day one - including data quality frameworks, lineage tracking and compliance-aligned reporting layers. We have delivered regulatory reporting solutions for AER obligations.

How does One51 roll out AI Foundry?

One51 rolls out Microsoft Foundry using proven frameworks from discovery to solution decision, governance and guardrails into technical implementation, use case delivery and adoption.
