Case Study: Trustpower achieves rapid service deployment and faster time-to-market with Microsoft Azure

Agile cloud helps NZ energy co. power into broadband retail

Trustpower, a New Zealand renewable-energy generator and retail ISP, needed a faster, more flexible technology platform to expand into new retail services. The company’s challenge was to shorten development and deployment cycles, integrate disparate systems, automate routine tasks, and enable activity-based working so new online services could be created in days rather than months.

Trustpower adopted a cloud-first strategy on Microsoft Azure, redeploying 90 applications and using Azure App Services, Logic Apps, Service Bus and automation in a hybrid environment. The result: new services that once took months now roll out in weeks, public websites avoid downtime, non‑technical teams can push changes with one click, costs align with usage, and executives gain instant business intelligence—enabling faster innovation and greater operational agility.
