Our Division D bundles all areas of IT as well as the areas Innovation, Digital & Data and the CDO Office. The German-Belgian teams work together on both local and Group solutions to drive the digital transformation of the Group.

• Innovation: We live in a world that is becoming increasingly complex and we need to adapt to the pace of developments. The Innovation team is responsible for identifying, evaluating, and integrating new technologies into Elia Group to meet the challenges of our rapidly changing energy landscape - today and in the future.

• Digital & Data: Our Digital & Data team is driving the digital transformation of Elia Group and its evolution into a data company. We work on prerequisites for data-centric working, new digital business initiatives and digital workplace models.

• Application Development and Maintenance: The IT Application Development and Maintenance (ADM) function ensures the support, maintenance and further development of applications for the specialist departments and thus supports the business activities of the Elia Group. The applications are either purchased on the market and integrated or they are developed by the division itself with its internal software factory (TMD and SAP).

• Infrastructure, Datacom & Security: The IT Infrastructure, Datacom & Security team ensures the provision, high availability and security of applications for the Elia Group. Its tasks include local support, equipping workstations and further developing the data centers. The team focuses on a deliberate and balanced compromise between new "state-of-the-art" technologies and proven, tried-and-tested technologies.

• CDO Office: The Office of the Chief Digital Officer is our interface between all areas. The team ensures harmonized and efficient policies and processes across IT to orchestrate strategy implementation and continuous improvement. This includes IT budgets and controlling, strategy and portfolio management, service management, and information and IT security.
