Case Study: ARC Alternatives gets energy data in under 24 hours with UtilityAPI

Smart Energy Consultancy Gets their Data Fast from UtilityAPI

ARC Alternatives is a small San Francisco-based energy consultancy that helps public sector organizations, institutions, and school districts evaluate energy-saving and renewable projects. To do that, they need fast, reliable utility data, but before working with UtilityAPI, gathering historical energy usage from multiple meters and utilities was slow, fragmented, and could take weeks.

With UtilityAPI’s simple authorization-based access to standardized utility data, ARC Alternatives was able to streamline data collection and analysis. The result was a dramatic improvement: what used to take weeks now takes less than 24 hours, giving ARC faster insight into client utility accounts and more consistent records over time. UtilityAPI’s responsive support and ongoing monitoring also helped ARC modernize its data retrieval process.
