Case Study: Energisa secures Brazil’s smart grid and cuts data centers with Citrix

Energisa reduces 18 data centers to 2 with Citrix

Energisa, one of Brazil's top energy companies, faced the challenge of securely connecting its 20,000+ employees spread across the vast country to the critical applications and data needed to build and manage a national smart grid. The company required a single, secure platform that could provide consistent access for both office and remote field teams while protecting sensitive operational data and meeting Brazil's critical infrastructure standards. To address this, Energisa turned to the vendor Citrix and its DaaS solution.

By implementing Citrix DaaS, Energisa created a unified and secure digital workspace. The solution centralized access and management, enabling significant infrastructure consolidation. A key result was reducing the number of required data centers for a major project from 18 down to just two, leading to substantial cost savings. The Citrix environment also provided a 50% increase in functionality speed and improved performance, allowing Energisa to scale its operations securely and efficiently. Citrix provided the secure digital foundation necessary to power Brazil's energy future.
