Aware of the great possibilities that are opening up for companies, Repsol has launched the first generative AI Competence Center in the energy sector in Europe in order to safely and responsibly explore the opportunities that generative artificial intelligence offers its businesses and employees in meeting its goal of net zero emissions by 2050.
The team that makes up this center is multidisciplinary, given the nature of the project: data scientists and data engineers, as well as experts from different fields such as cybersecurity, auditing, people and organization professionals, or legal specialists, among other profiles. All will explore how generative AI can be used to accelerate the digital transformation of the company and identify and implement the uses that will generate value in their business areas. The work of the Competence Center will also make it possible, thanks to these applications, to make the day-to-day work of Repsol employees easier and increase the company's efficiency in the development of technological solutions. The main objectives of this Competence Center are:
- Identify and implement cases in which the use of these new Generative AI models could add value to our business units by accelerating their digital transformation.
- Promote new ways of working for our professionals that will allow them to explore these tools to make them more beneficial in their day-to-day work.
- Improve productivity through the development and application of technological and digital solutions.
Now immersed in the 2nd wave of the digital program (2023–2025), we face a great challenge, to be able to develop and implement solutions based on generative AI that accelerate Repsol's Digitalization Program in a safe and responsible way.
