TotalEnergies builds a cloud foundation for the future of energy
Trading operating complexity for clearer control at global scale
5-MINUTE READ
The global energy system is evolving rapidly. As companies grow their renewable and electrification businesses alongside established operations, they must manage increasing complexity while keeping reliability, security, and costs under control.
For TotalEnergies, operating critical systems across 10 business entities, more than 260 SAP environments and 800 virtual machines connecting over 50,000 users worldwide, this need was becoming increasingly clear. As the business continued to expand, leaders needed greater confidence that their technology foundation could support change and consistently provide visibility into consumption, strong governance, and dependable security across the enterprise.
To meet that ambition, TotalEnergies worked with Accenture, leveraging its strategic cloud partnership with AWS, to migrate its global SAP landscape to the public cloud—using the move not just to relocate systems, but to strengthen control, resilience, and financial discipline across the enterprise.

Turning migration into modernization
From the outset, leadership understood that infrastructure alone would not deliver the outcomes they were seeking. Instead, TotalEnergies used the migration as a moment to reimagine how the organization operates.
At our scale, strengthening the technology foundation is essential. This transformation gave us greater resilience today and readiness for what’s next.

From foundation to forward momentum
Today, TotalEnergies operates with a clearer sense of control across its global environment:
For teams running day-to-day operations, standardized SAP environments and predictable release cycles have simplified how work gets done, making it easier for teams to plan and deliver changes with confidence.
Most importantly, infrastructure is no longer a prerequisite conversation every time the business wants to move. New digital initiatives—supporting both existing assets and emerging low-carbon businesses—can launch without reworking core systems, allowing leaders to focus on outcomes rather than constraints.
Designed to support both today’s operational demands and tomorrow’s ambitions, this cloud foundation positions TotalEnergies to strengthen forecasting, improve asset performance, and advance its energy transition strategy.
