A new experience for utility customers

Opower is a new customer engagement platform for the utility industry. It reinvents the way utilities interact with customers—from the quality of the information provided to the way it's presented and delivered. It helps people use energy more efficiently and ultimately save money on their energy bills.
And it vastly improves the overall customer experience by making energy use personally relevant.

Happy, efficient customers: that's the "new normal" for our 60+ utility partners. Welcome to Opower.
