Case Study: Google advances 24/7 carbon-free energy goals with Flexidao

Flexidao gathers electricity data to provide in-depth insight into Google’s global clean energy portfolio

Google, a global technology company, required a solution to help achieve its ambitious goal of operating on 24/7 carbon-free energy by 2030. The challenge involved managing a complex, global portfolio of renewable energy purchases, which required the collection and standardization of high-resolution hourly data from diverse markets to maintain oversight and plan procurement effectively. To address this, Google partnered with vendor Flexidao.

Flexidao implemented its platform to give Google a single, live view of its global clean energy portfolio. The solution automated the intake and validation of hourly data from data centers and power purchase agreements, consolidating contracts, metering data, and certificates into one place. This provided Google with the critical visibility needed to pinpoint coverage gaps and steer procurement efforts. The measurable result is that Google now manages its entire clean energy portfolio on a unified platform, enabling a more efficient and confident pursuit of its 24/7 carbon-free energy goals.
