“The winners of the AESP Energy Awards are true models for our community and the larger clean energy industry. They represent earnest collaboration, daring innovation and the uplifting power of inclusivity,” said Jen Szaro, president & CEO of AESP. “The contributions of these people and projects go far beyond electrons saved and kilowatts moved and managed. They’ve uplifted communities and businesses, created healthier environments and removed barriers to clean energy participation for those who need it most.”

With Bidgely's UtilityAI Platform, utilities have the ability to monitor the energy usage of each customer for all 8,760 hours of the year. This continuous and detailed tracking offers deep insights into how customers use energy, with breakdowns available by the hour, geographic area, rate plans, and appliance type (including refrigeration, heating, cooling, lighting, electric vehicle charging, and more). For the first time, utilities gain a full picture of how energy flows on the grid.

Bidgely’s UtilityAI insights can be easily disseminated across multiple business units, breaking down organizational silos and creating agile teams that work faster and more efficiently, redefining ‘business as usual.’

“We are honored to be recognized by AESP for empowering utilities to understand, in real time, how energy moves along the grid to remain agile in today’s dynamic energy landscape,” said Abhay Gupta, CEO of Bidgely. “Bidgely’s UtilityAI Platform inspires the rethinking of legacy problems with new approaches. Utilities around the world are now improving how they support evolving customer expectations, managing the complexities of today’s supply and demand paradigm, and optimizing existing grid infrastructure using AI.”

The implementation of Bidgely’s UtilityAI Platform was recognized in particular for enabling Avista to easily share appliance-level energy consumption information and data-driven discoveries cross-departmentally. With one single data source, Avista was able to: reduce high bill investigation truck rolls, improve customer engagement satisfaction ratings, identify new opportunities for Federal Grant capture, enhance electric vehicle (EV) and distributed energy resources (DER) grid planning, and save hundreds of hours in employee workloads.
