The partnership enables the energy transition through data sharing and digital customer engagement, unlocking the full potential of AMI data.
WD News: Itron, Inc is going to expand its collaboration with Smart Energy Water (SEW). Together, the companies are aiming to transform the utility-consumer relationship, enabling utilities to become trusted advisors to consumers in managing the energy transition and integrating Distributed Energy Resources (DERs).
As part of the collaboration, the companies are accelerating the value realized from Itron’s Distributed Intelligence (DI) ecosystem and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) data through more effective data sharing and consumer empowerment. By creating an easy, secure, and standardized mechanism to share data with consumers and authorized third parties, they are aiming to help utilities and consumers realize the expanded benefits of next-generation AMI.
With this approach to data sharing, utilities, third parties, and consumers can collaborate to provide new services and revenue streams to one another.
“With Itron’s DataHub and expanded collaboration with SEW, we are changing the game for consumer engagement and creating more value from AMI and distributed intelligence, out of the gate,” said Don Reeves, Senior Vice President of Outcomes at Itron.
“As more distributed energy resources are brought onto the grid, engaging consumers and providing them with choice, control, and convenience will be key,” said Deepak Garg, CEO and Founder of SEW.
