Analysts note that the timing reflects intensifying competition in energy data services, amid the accelerating global energy transition and rising demand for reliable market intelligence.
New York-based financial information firm S&P Global has announced the rebranding of its Commodity Insights division as S&P Global Energy at the company’s 2025 Investor Day. The move reflects a sharpened strategic focus on providing benchmarks, data, and insights for the global energy sector, amid emerging demand and complex supply chain dynamics, the company said in a statement on Monday.
The division will continue to house the company’s industry-defining Platts energy and commodity benchmarks, widely used across upstream, refining, liquified natural gas (LNG), petrochemicals, and power markets. The rebrand signals S&P Global’s intent to strengthen its role in supporting governments, investors, and industry stakeholders navigating the ongoing energy transition.
Dave Ernsberger, President of S&P Global Energy, noted, “With massive economic expansion expected in the coming decades, energy demand will expand dramatically—and energy sources, materials, transportation and supply chains will grow. At S&P Global Energy, we are building on decades of expertise to provide the strategic and data-driven clarity our customers need in this rapidly evolving and diversifying global energy ecosystem. Everything is made from energy, and we are uniquely positioned to help customers plan and invest with a truly integrated view.”
According to the company, S&P Global Energy will deliver intelligence to help customers manage risk, assess investment opportunities, and navigate volatility across interconnected energy and commodity markets. The division also convenes global stakeholders at CERAWeek, one of the most influential energy conferences worldwide.
The rebrand, developed through extensive customer and market research, reinforces S&P Global’s ambition to remain a leading provider of clarity and benchmarks across energy sources and supply chains.
