Regulatory News:
For the first time, Veolia (Paris:VIE), a global leader in
ecological transformation, and Mistral AI, a key player in
generative artificial intelligence, announce a strategic
partnership aimed at transforming the management and monitoring of
industrial sites for water management, waste recycling and local
energy production. By combining Mistral AI’s cutting-edge
technology with Veolia’s data and expertise, the two companies are
paving the way for a new era of innovation and efficiency, actively
contributing to the ecological transformation.
This partnership marks a major step forward in industrial
management. Thanks to the integration of Mistral LLM (Large
Language Model) with Veolia’s data and knowledge base, it will now
be possible to have a conversation with the plant, a world first.
This innovation will bring unprecedented transparency and modernize
plant monitoring, particularly in crucial areas such as personal
safety and water consumption management.
By integrating the power of generative artificial intelligence,
Veolia and Mistral AI are implementing a unique solution enabling
employees and stakeholders to co-pilot water, waste and energy
plants through interactive discussions. This represents a further
step towards the realization of Industry 5.0 and the emergence of
augmented employees, where technology directly supports human
expertise.
With more than 3,800 drinking water production plants under
management, and more than 3,200 wastewater treatment plants, 865
waste treatment facilities and 48,745 thermal facilities worldwide,
Veolia has a unique footprint that will maximize the impact of this
innovation. This project will support the objectives of GreenUp,
Veolia’s strategic program for depollution, decarbonization and
resources regeneration.
The two companies bring complementary strengths to the
table:
Veolia, with its 170 years of experience, presence in over 45
countries and unrivalled expertise in water, waste and energy
management, contributes its operational know-how and in-depth
knowledge of industrial challenges.
Mistral AI, with its sovereign capabilities and transparency in
the development of AI models, offers an advanced and secure
technological solution that guarantees the ethical and responsible
use of AI.
The advantages of this technology are numerous:
- Simplified access to knowledge: Technicians and operators will
be able to automatically access technical knowledge bases and
critical data, whether applied to normal or exceptional
situations.
- Greater transparency: Stakeholders, including customers, will
be able to interact with systems in natural language, enabling
real-time recommendations and proactive problem-solving.
- Improved operational efficiency: thanks to optimized monitoring
and precise recommendations, Veolia’s industrial sites will achieve
new standards of performance and sustainability.
“This partnership with Mistral AI marks a decisive step in our
commitment to accelerate innovation and better respond to all the
challenges caused by global warming. In line with the GreenUp
strategic plan, Veolia plans to increase the efficiencies brought
about by digital and artificial intelligence in particular to
optimize its customers' water and energy consumption, waste sorting
and recycling, and strengthen predictive maintenance. By
integrating generative artificial intelligence into the management
of our sites and industrial processes, we are strengthening our
ability to innovate and optimize our know-how in order to
decarbonize, depollute and regenerate resources.” - Estelle
Brachlianoff, CEO of Veolia.
“This partnership highlights how GenAI can help make
plants smarter. Over the past few years, plants have increasingly
integrated digital sensors and tools. Our models enable these rich
data streams to provide more valuable insights for operators and
Veolia's customers, contributing to accelerate Veolia’s mission to
drive ecological transformation.” - Arthur Mensch, CEO of
Mistral AI.
