Smart Grid integration
The Los Angeles Water and Power Department is following an incremental approach to integrating Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) into its electric and water operations (IT, metering, GIS, billing). They’ve engaged Longcrier Communications through contracts with Itron and TRC/WSP to help with the change management—including communications, training, business process mapping, and testing. It is a rewarding challenge to bring many teams together to develop and implement a solution that benefits customers and the organization as they work to achieve greater efficiencies and a portfolio of power generation that is composed mainly of renewables.
