In an era where data drives innovation, utility companies, regardless of size, face common challenges and reap similar benefits from advanced data integration. Glendale Water and Power, a municipal water and electric utility in Southern California, has spearheaded an initiative to merge smart meter data, SCADA data, and IT data, achieving significant operational improvements with PowerRunner on PI at the heart of the solution.

This presentation will delve into how Glendale Water and Power overcame obstacles like bad data, user adoption, and organizational change by focusing not just on IT technology but on fundamental shifts in data management. We will explore the critical role of data governance and the necessity of a contextual model to make sense of merged data. Attendees will learn how a robust network model can transform raw data into actionable insights, driving efficiency and enhancing decision-making processes.

Join us to discover how the integration of diverse data sources through PowerRunner on PI can lead to new efficiencies, improved analysis, and ultimately, better service delivery in the utility sector. Whether you represent a small municipal utility or a large investor-owned utility, the principles and benefits of this integration are universally applicable.
