    In this episode, host Rebecca Ahrens speaks with AVEVA Pre-Sales Engineer Dan Lopez about his family’s harrowing experiences during the Polar Vortex that hit Texas in February of 2021. Dan shares how his at-home PI System gave his family insight into the storm’s impact and in doing so, helped them help others.

    City of Riverside PUD on quantifying ROI and digital transformation in the water industry

    The City of Riverside Public Utilities Department has embraced digital transformation by making better use of sensor-based data. Because they work closely with their board of public utilities on expenditures they track the value they are getting from their efforts. In this episode, we talk to the people who have grown the return on investment (ROI) they get from their work on the PI System from $672,000 per year in 2019 to $1,300,000 per year today. We discuss how they track ROI, how they improved adoption of the use of their Operational Data Management System (ODMS), what they did to improve water operations, how they use it in their market operations system for trading energy, and what value they found in putting their sensor-based data on their ArcGIS map displays.
