Emphasis Energy turns the public data every utility files with the federal government into benchmarks, learning, and tools people want to use. Leadership sets better goals. Employees understand the industry they work in, and get excited about it.
The data that benchmarks your rates, your reliability, your territory's economic health, and your growth against every utility in the country is publicly available, but very few utilities use it. The ones that do track metrics benchmark against a handful of neighbors, which means they measure progress without the full picture.
Emphasis Energy puts industry data in front of every employee, from the executive team to the front line, and builds a culture where people understand their utility's performance, know how it compares to peers, set better goals, and care about what comes next.
New employees leave onboarding with years of institutional knowledge compressed into a single experience, understanding their utility's customers, territory, reliability, rates, and generation landscape through real data benchmarked against peers. Long-tenured employees see the bigger picture they've been working inside for years. Leadership gains a shared language with their team, built around the numbers that actually matter. And the same data goes home with people in their pocket.
Both started as tools built for one utility. The Platform teaches a cooperative's employees their own business through benchmarked data. The iPhone app puts the same public plant and utility data in anyone's pocket.
Five sequenced learning modules, each paired with a live dashboard of your cooperative's data benchmarked against state peers, neighbors, and national averages. Employees read the concept, learn the terms, study the numbers, and pass a quiz to unlock the next module.
Every power plant and electric utility in the U.S. on a map, with the data they report to the federal government each year. See what a plant generates, what your utility charges against the state and the country, and how your state ranks. Visit a plant and collect it.
The same data and the same design can become a benchmark report for your board, a training module for a new line crew, or a tool nobody has built yet. Tell us the question your team keeps asking, and we will build the thing that answers it.
Every metric is sourced from public data sources — EIA, Census, USDA, AFDC — cleaned, normalized, and benchmarked against the peer set that you choose.
Customer growth, kWh sales, and rate comparisons across residential, commercial, and industrial classes. See the big picture with 15+ years of data.
Population, demographic composition, economic indicators, and poverty stats — compared to every peer utility in your state and footprint.
SAIDI, CAIDI, and SAIFI with and without major event days gives you a clear picture into trends in outages and reliability around the country.
Your state's resource mix, regional grid context, and the transitions already in motion around you.
EV adoption trends, charging-station density in your territory, and the load-shape implications you'll want to understand before they show up on the system.
Utilities that work with us put data in front of their people, then get back to running the business, with sharper conversations and fewer surprises.
We'll walk you through your own benchmark report, show you both products, and talk about what a tool built for your utility could look like.
