Case Study: OhmConnect achieves real-time, data-driven energy savings and operational efficiency with Periscope Data

OhmConnect - Customer Case Study

OhmConnect, a San Francisco–based clean energy provider that pays consumers to cut usage during weekly “#OhmHours,” needed a flexible analytics platform to power everything from consumer-facing visualizations to real‑time operational monitoring. Data is core to their business—tracking signups, utility connections, device telemetry and alerts—so OhmConnect adopted Periscope Data in 2015 to support multiple teams and scale analytics as the company grew.

Periscope Data delivered centralized dashboards, real‑time alerts, R/Python integrations, version control and embedded reporting that OhmConnect uses across product, marketing and support. That tooling enabled near‑real‑time detection and correction of issues (for example identifying why only 80% of alerts went out and fixing the remaining 20%), faster troubleshooting, and broader analytical transparency—helping drive the user coordination that contributed to OhmConnect users saving over 500 megawatts and receiving more than $4 million in conservation payments. Periscope Data remains core to their operational monitoring and analytics.
