Automation, artificial intelligence and real-time impact validation.
Smarkia is consolidating its position as a comprehensive platform for strategically managing energy, operations and emissions. This is confirmed by the independent analysis firm Verdantix, which has just published its global report on energy management platforms (EMS).

A report that sets the standard

Specializing in sustainability, operational efficiency and digital transformation, Verdantix has evaluated 47 international providers and ranked Smarkia among the most advanced and complete solutions on the market.

"In 2025, energy management has risen to the top of the corporate agenda, driven by market volatility, stricter climate regulations and growing pressure to improve operational performance," says Henry Yared, analyst at Verdantix.
“Energy, sustainability and real estate leaders are looking for intelligent platforms that enable real-time optimization, automated fault resolution, emissions forecasting and more effective energy sourcing strategies. Vendors like Smarkia offer innovative solutions that directly respond to these priorities, such as cost efficiency, regulatory compliance and long-term energy resilience.”

A platform that turns data into decisions

Verdantix's assessment highlights Smarkia s high cross-cutting performance in all key areas analyzed: from energy control to emissions management, automation, procurement and operations.

What does this mean in practice?

It means that Smarkia enables:

  • Real-time energy optimization, adapting dynamically to demand, renewable generation or market signals.
  • Automation of critical tasks: anomaly detection, asset control or invoice validation.
  • Simulation and forecasting of the impact of measures before implementation.
  • Operational continuity, even in the face of grid outages or sensor failures.

All this thanks to an architecture based on AI, interoperability and strategic vision.

"It's not enough to have good functionality."

"Participating in the evaluation process has been as stimulating as it has been demanding," explains Álvaro Díez, Project Manager at Smarkia.
"This type of analysis is a major challenge for any technology provider, as it combines a detailed technical review of our solutions with a precise alignment with the real needs of the market. It is not enough to offer good functionality: the ability to demonstrate impact, real automation, integration with existing infrastructures and strategic vision for the future are particularly valued."
He adds:
"The report highlights how our solutions enable us not only to analyze data, but also to forecast scenarios, automate decisions and maintain operational continuity even in critical environments. It also highlights our innovation in the use of AI, especially in improving data quality and automating energy management. This recognition reinforces our positioning as a technology leader in an increasingly demanding market."

What sets Smarkia apart?

In a fragmented EMS market, many solutions focus on a single functionality: reporting, visualization or validation.
Smarkiatakes a holistic approach, connecting all key modules in a single platform:

  • Fast and frictionless technical deployment.
  • Multi-site and multi-country scalability.
  • Adaptation to new regulatory frameworks (CSRD, capacity and flexibility markets).
  • Decisions based on energy, economic and carbon data... in one place.

Differential functionalities

Smarkia has been recognized for its ability to:

  • Reconstruct lost data with artificial intelligence.
  • Simulate the impact of measures prior to their implementation.
  • Automatically validate results, without Excel sheets or manual processes.
  • Integrate with systems such as HVAC, BMS, DERs and operation solutions.

A technological vision with real impact

Verdantix's assessment not only certifies Smarkia's technical maturity. It recognizes a vision that puts innovation at the service of the market, in a context where the pressure to reduce costs, emissions and uncertainty is increasing.

Smarkia not only responds to today's challenges. It is designed to lead change.
