LOS ALTOS, Calif.: Bidgely announces new session details for its annual energy intelligence conference, EmPOWER AI, which will take place September 17-19 in Spokane, Washington. Featuring keynotes from this year’s utility host, Avista Utilities, and sessions by Tucson Electric Power, SoCalGas, Rocky Mountain Power and more, EmPOWER AI 2024 will explore the successful implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) by utilities today as well as a preview of new innovations on the horizon from Bidgely. The event will bring together utility executives, program leaders and technology experts from across the industry.

“Utilities are facing the urgent need to evolve with a dynamic power grid, and EmPOWER AI centers on demonstrating the viable solutions available now that utilities can deploy quickly and effectively,” said Abhay Gupta, CEO of Bidgely. “By providing a platform to highlight real-world use cases, we also aim to remove much of the anxiety associated with AI adoption.”

Named one of Fast Company’s top 10 most innovative Applied AI companies in the world, Bidgely’s decade-plus experience in AI-powered analytics has enabled more than 40 global energy providers to develop sophisticated, data-driven programs - many of which will be shared at EmPOWER AI 2024. The event is the evolution of Bidgely’s annual power user conference, preceded by UtilityAI™ Executive Innovation Collaborative (UEIC), hosted by Berkshire Hathaway Energy (2023) and SMUD (2022), and Bidgely Engage (2021).

“Avista is honored to host this year’s EmPOWER AI, showcasing how AI inspires continuous innovation across our business units,” said Latisha Hill, Vice President Community Affairs and Chief Customer Officer at Avista. “Sharing our collective experiences as an industry is the most powerful way we both ensure the grid remains resilient and we provide exceptional service to our customers.”

A Bidgely partner since 2020, Avista discovered the expansive potential of data and AI applications to foster cross-functional collaboration. Through a series of sessions, Avista leaders will share their successful integration of data analytics across various domains, including customer experience, call center support and grid planning.
