SAS Institute Inc. - Global

SAS® Energy Forecasting Cloud enables utilities, large and small, with trustworthy, repeatable, defensible, and scalable energy forecasts across all locations, at all levels of aggregation. Delivered in the cloud, this AI-embedded solution enables utilities to make informed decisions about energy demand from generation to distribution for improved planning in the face of an expanding and diverse grid -- without burdening IT or increasing computing requirements.

Transparent, trusted forecasts are essential for sharing with internal partners and third-party stakeholders – and for avoiding millions of dollars in trading and operations losses and regulatory fines. But not all organizations have the budget and resources to maintain forecasting software on-premises. With SAS Energy Forecasting Cloud all utilities can scale their energy forecasting needs to support their business.

Utilities using SAS Energy Forecasting Cloud can be confident that they’ll operate more efficiently and effectively due to our automation, scalability, statistical sophistication and transparency. Plus, we have experience working with hundreds of utilities worldwide.
