    Thanks for posting Kevin,
    This is an important question and one that we have looked at in terms of how a utility’s AMI data is used throughout their business, to create revenue or generate cost savings.
    At the last UAI Power Hour, the community was very generous to discuss how their AMI data weaves its way through the enterprise and creates monetary benefits.
    We at TEA would be happy to discuss how we support our clients’ data management needs with your contact at CLP Hong Kong.
    Let me know if we can help in anyway.

    Kind Regards,
    –Beth

    Hello UAI data focused members!

    An interesting question came in from a new member of CLP Hong Kong and I’m hoping to get some help from our community. The question surrounds data monetization and advice to those in the early stages of their data journey. Please take a look at the question below and let us know if we can provide any additional information. As always we appreciate your help and look forward to seeing your responses and making a connection with our new member!

    Question:

    “We’re looking internally at the maturity of our data journey within our organization and also exploring data monetization. Either directly (APIs) or indirectly through data driven services (e.g. supporting finance industry for example). Are there any utilities that are doing this as well that would be willing to connect? We are still at the early stages of our journey, but would be nice to chat to a few folks.”


    Thanks again for your help!
