The EUDS allows commercial building managers to enter their building portfolio and request whole building energy usage data on a monthly basis from ComEd. The system automatically retrieves the data from ComEd's systems and submits it to the EPA's Energy Star Portfolio Manager tool. This provides benchmarking and eliminates the previously manual process that took 10-12 days per request. Since launching in 2008, over 25,000 monthly data requests have been fulfilled through the EUDS system for more than 3,000 buildings.
GIS Mobile Apps for Highways - Wiltshire CouncilEsri UK
At Esri UK Annual Conference 2014
With 90% of Council data having a spatial element, either an address or location on a map, the provision of spatial information is a trusted and valuable service within Wiltshire Council. With the ever expanding need for spatial data across the business coupled with pressures to make more savings across the authority, it is essential we maximise the use of our existing contracts, join up and share spatial data across business areas internally and externally and strive to make the best business decisions possible for our customers via GIS.

From the rise of connected devices at home, to automated industrial production processes and smart mobility, digital technologies are increasingly changing how, where and when energy is consumed. The IEA’s latest report, Digitalization & Energy, is the first-ever comprehensive effort to depict how digital technologies could transform the world’s energy systems. The report examines the impact of digital technologies on energy demand sectors, looks at how energy suppliers can use digital tools to improve operations, and explores the transformational potential of digitalization to help create a highly interconnected energy system. The report also explores the wider policy implications of increasing connectivity and automation, including for energy security, energy access, employment, data ownership, and privacy.

The New Role of Data in the Changing Energy & Utilities LandscapeDenodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3PrxEx2
Energy companies - both producers and utilities - are facing a challenging and changing business and regulatory environment over the next decade or so. As governments around the world pledge to be 'net zero' by 2050, new regulations are putting pressure on energy companies to accelerate the move to renewable energy sources whilst at the same time gearing up for more widespread electrification as consumers move away from carbon fuels.
The growth of renewable energy sources has also changed the way that utilities manage demand response. The old way of bringing generating units (typically coal or gas-fueled generators) online for peak demand hours no longer works. The distributed utility infrastructure that is used today requires a lot more flexibility and planning to meet - and to shape - consumer demand.
At the heart of the energy company challenges is data. Data to better manage and optimize the generating resources. Data to better inform the consumers about their energy consumption. And data to deliver better services and new product offerings to those consumers.
In this webinar, we will look at how energy companies and utilities can liberate and democratize their data to better utilize the strategic data assets that they already own. We will look at how the Denodo Platform, powered by Data Virtualization, has helped energy companies around the world access real-time data to drive their operations and allow them to respond to the ever-changing business environment.
The Digital Utility Plant: Unlocking value from the digitization of productionCapgemini
Digital utility plants to unleash big improvements in production costs and environmental impact.
Utilities around the world are leveraging digital technologies to enhance efficiency and optimize production. Examples show impressive returns, but we wanted to understand the wider picture of the value and benefits of digital plants. We surveyed 200 senior executives in utility companies around the world with annual revenues of more than $1 billion to know about their digital plant initiatives.
Embedded subscriber database analytics help operators improve internal efficiency and monetize data assets, while exploring new cross-vertical Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
This presentation was made at the final workshop of the Application Programming interfaces APIs4DGov. The presentation is an overview overview of the APIs4DGov study, focussing on the following topics related to the API adoption in governments:
- The methodology adopted within the study
- The importance of the adoption
- The state of play (trends, cases and best practices)
- The internal (efficiency gains and open data access improvement) and external (fostering innovation, enablement of digital ecosystems and economic opportunities) benefits
- The costs (implementing a whole of government platform, reengineering existing systems towards APIs, cultural change) and challenges (adhere to legislation, improve the policy understanding and support)
- A proposed API framework for governments
- The thematic areas and technologies where the adoption of APIs can have a major impact
- The list of outputs of the project
We are into developing IoT end to end solutions. Our product consist of an IoT gateway which monitors & control the assets remotely, a cloud solution which performs analytics over data and a device compatible dashboards.
Our experience in industry has shown that the seamless integration of enterprise assets is the need and our product primarily addresses that need.
AI on Demand: Data Science in OperationsAlexa Ienna
AI is right here, right now—and changing our lives. The ever-present need for business optimization, combined with a long history of applied statistics, explosive growth in available data and recent advances in cloud computing, has created a perfect storm of innovation. This presentation shows real-time AI in action, including case studies in recommender systems, anomaly detection, risk management, dynamic pricing and customer engagement.
Defining Pace of Urban Development: E-Governance in ULB's and PWD's.Omkar Parishwad
The rapid development of cities has been concerned with the delivery of services in an organized, planned manner. The urban sector in India, is struggling to make effective use of Information and Communication Technology to further deployment of resources for information retrieval, decision making, ongoing management, service delivery and outreach. All evidence points to the obvious benefits of the use of ICT; environmental and economic sustainability and general livability. This vision of egovernance involves ICT applications to mitigate the impacts of rapid urbanization. With E-Government systems revolutions befalling urban India due to various policy level interventions by the government; swiftness in development has been ascertained. The present paper investigates Urban Development that has brought e-Governance applications catering to the Government relating to Infrastructure Sector, amongst others; thus affecting environmental, social and economic structure significantly. The study further finds the scope of progress and affected areas for development, encouraged by certain e-Government solutions. The research helps us arrive at a line of action and necessary initiatives for successful implementation of ICT based solutions in Infrastructure industry. It also allows a peek into future scenario of improvements and deliberations in India in consideration with the scenario of developing countries.

John Simmins (EPRI): Electric Utility AR: IoT, Smart Cities and all That
Utilities have a jump on the rest of the world when it comes to IoT, Industry 4.0 and Smart Cities. They have had a lot of “things” to communicate with for a long time. Recently, AR has changed how that happens. This presentation will show how humans talk to “things” in a utility context. Examples will be presented from environmental, generations and power delivery perspectives.

Building Energy Rating & Disclosure: A Catalyst for EfficiencyCliff Majersik
85% of buildings in operation in 2030 will be buildings we already have today. That means we need to maximize their efficiency. Building energy rating & disclosure--tracking the energy consumption of buildings and comparing it--is an effective way to catalyze greater efficiency.
