ZGlobal and SVCE work together in the Silicon Valley as an energy consulting firm and an energy provider respectively. They knew there had to be a faster and more secure way to share essential data between themselves and their power producer. Together, they adopted CONNECT and turned their business ecosystem into a cutting-edge data-sharing community. The group’s new cloud-based data-sharing solution increases security and simplifies the process of sharing datasets with multiple parties.
“I can’t undersell the value of being able to integrate data with generator and scheduler data to give us a holistic view. It has lowered our overhead while we are bootstrapping.”
