Digital Transformation of Georgia’s Electricity Market

For the Georgian State Electrosystem (GSE), Blaze, a subsidiary of Orient Logic, developed the Electricity Market Participant Platform (EMP) — a unified digital system that brings together key processes and services for electricity market participants in one place.

The project aimed to digitize manual and document-based processes, simplify data processing, and support the alignment of Georgia’s electricity market with European standards.

Challenge

Before the platform was developed, the registration of energy market participants, data processing, reporting, and other important operations were largely handled manually. This made processes more time-consuming, increased the risk of human error, and made information management more difficult. GSE needed a centralized, reliable, and scalable digital platform that could automate critical energy market processes and ensure transparent and efficient management.

Solution

The EMP platform, developed by Blaze, brings the key processes of the energy market together in a single digital environment. The system enables users to digitally manage registration, energy market trading processes, financial guarantees, settlements, document exchange, cost calculations, monitoring, and reporting.

The platform also provides access to near real-time information on electricity trading, prices, consumption, and other important data.

Technologies Used

• IBM Process Automation Manager Open Edition
• IBM Instana Observability
• Red Hat OpenShift
• Red Hat Integration

Result

With the implementation of EMP, a significant part of previously manual processes has been moved to a digital and automated environment. Automated reporting and centralized data management reduce the risk of human error, speed up operations, and improve the reliability and transparency of processes. The platform supports the development of Georgia’s electricity market into a modern, competitive ecosystem aligned with European standards.

International Recognition

IBM recognized the project as a success story and featured it on its Case Studies platform as an example of digital transformation powered by the collaboration between the Georgian State Electrosystem, Blaze, and IBM technologies.
