Case Study: Excelsior EMC restores power faster and improves worker safety with Clevest Automated Worker Location

Tracking Workers, Borrowed Crews and Contractors During a Hurricane

Excelsior EMC, an electric utility, needed a way to ensure the safety and efficiency of their own crews and hundreds of mutual aid workers responding to the widespread outages caused by Hurricane Irma.

Clevest provided its Automated Worker Location app, which was deployed in less than 24 hours and integrated with the utility's existing systems. The solution offered real-time GPS tracking on workers' own smartphones, improving safety and logistics. With over 150 workers tracked, Excelsior EMC restored power to more than 18,000 affected meters within 72 hours.
