Description

This IDC Market Note presents the IDC Energy Insights team's key takeaways from Accenture’s 33rd annual International Utilities and Energy Conference, held in Washington, D.C., on May 27–29, 2025. Themes included the importance of innovation, resilience, equity, and customer engagement in the energy transition. The conference also addressed the role of datacenters, policy changes in the United States, and the human aspect of the transition, underscoring the need for technological, financial, and cultural change to navigate the evolving energy landscape effectively.“In an era of unprecedented uncertainty, utilities must pivot to customer-centricity like never before. Residential and commercial customers are utilities’ most important assets; they increasingly 'co-own' the grid and are key to unlocking flexibility and new value streams. Accenture’s continued commitment to its customers (and their customers) was evident at its annual International Utilities and Energy Conference, where it showcased its GenAI reinvention and highlighted its focus on helping energy and utility clients to thrive despite widespread uncertainty.” — Research Director Gaia Gallotti, IDC Energy Insights

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
