Albert School and Sense Reply Launch the First Business Deep Dive on Energy Transition

Albert School, the first European institution combining Business, Data & AI, and Sense Reply, a company of the Reply Group, are partnering for the first Business Deep Dive dedicated to the energy transition.
Starting on November 24, 2025, the project offers students from Albert School’s Milan campus the opportunity to apply artificial intelligence to real-world business challenges in the energy sector, with a focus on decarbonization and the analysis of complex systems.
As part of the program, Sense Reply will propose the challenge “Anomaly Detection in Electrical Power Consumption Flow,” which involves developing a machine learning algorithm capable of identifying abnormal patterns in electricity consumption data, detecting deviations and potential irregularities in energy flows.
“We are excited about this initiative, which tangibly connects academia and industry, training new professionals who can combine managerial expertise, business vision, and the conscious use of artificial intelligence,” said Andrea Ranchino, Partner at Sense Reply. “Turning technological innovation into competitive value is what will make organizations sustainable in the long term.”
The program will run for three weeks, featuring regular interactions between students and the Sense Reply team — from the kick-off on November 24, to an interim coaching session, and culminating in the final presentation on December 12, when teams will showcase their solutions to Sense Reply experts and the Albert School academic staff.
“We are very pleased about this collaboration with Sense Reply, which perfectly embodies our vision of education,” added Floriano Bollettini, Country Director Italy at Albert School – Business & Data. “At Albert School, we encourage students from day one to apply what they learn in class — from advanced data analytics concepts to business logic — because we believe that today the real difference lies not in what you know, but in what you can do with what you know. Projects like this allow our students to transition smoothly from study to work, turning knowledge into skills and skills into real impact.”
Winning teams will have the opportunity to connect directly with the Sense Reply team for potential internships and collaborations, strengthening the link between education, innovation, and the professional world.
