Rapidly predict and respond to weather-caused power outages
The connection between weather and power outages has long been a problem for utilities. Restoring distribution system outages is a major operational cost in adverse weather. If a power outage occurs, utilities have a small window of time to restore power before customers get upset and regulators seek answers. Outage Prediction, within the Environmental Intelligence Suite, is an automated, customizable cloud-based solution that uses weather data and forecasting expertise with client data sets to develop machine-learning predictive models that help utility companies proactively prepare their response to weather events, improve restoration times and boost customer and regulatory satisfaction.
Benefits of Outage Prediction
Enhance customer experience
Proactively inform your customers of potential storm outages and the estimated response time based on outage predictions.
Reduce restoration times
Prepare and respond to power outages more effectively when severe weather strikes and restore your services faster by releasing crews sooner in the right location and at the right time.
Increase operational efficiency
More accurately predict the correct level of resources necessary prior to a storm to optimize costly mobilizations and maximize the use of your restoration resources.
