US power leader Dominion Energy gathers and shares data from across its North American grid network using AVEVA Data Hub and Microsoft Azure. This cloud-based data management allows Dominion’s team to turn power grid data into a new source of revenue. Dominion’s energy source and performance data lets Dominion’s customers track Dominion’s sustainability commitments and prove the company is using energy from low-carbon sources. This, in turn, enables Dominion’s customers to provide proof of their own net-zero commitments to investors and environmental, social and governance (ESG) auditors. As a result, Dominion is increasing its profitability and helping to accelerate the low carbon energy transition in North America.
“By utilizing AVEVA Data Hub (previously known as OSIsoft Cloud Services) we enable our data to reach the cloud quickly, and from there, we can share it with our utility customers so that they can use it. We're turning real-time data on energy sources into a selling point for our company, and this enables our customers to select Dominion over another energy provider. The intelligence of the AVEVA PI System tools means that we can achieve speed-to-market and realize benefit more quickly, for ourselves and our customers.”
