Utilities often carry more bad address data than they realize across CIS, AMI, billing, and outage systems, creating avoidable costs and operational challenges.The impact is far-reaching. Grid modernization initiatives depend on meters being linked to the correct premise. AI-enabled dispatch assumes crews can locate faults quickly and accurately. Tax determinations and franchise fee calculations rely on accurate alignment between meters and mailing addresses. As data center expansion accelerates and utility networks become more complex, location intelligence is becoming increasingly critical to utility operations. This session explores what becomes possible when address quality, precise geocoding, and data enrichment are treated as a strategic foundation rather than a data cleanup exercise. Attendees will hear real-world examples of how utilities are using location intelligence to reduce costs, improve operational efficiency, and support modernization initiatives. Join us to learn practical best practices and discover how location intelligence can help transform your organization.

Session Takeaways:

• Assess where inaccurate address data may be quietly driving cost, inefficiency, and risk across utility operations.
• Examine how utility organizations are leveraging location intelligence to improve business outcomes and apply those lessons within your own organization.
• Analyze what a location-first data foundation means for grid modernization, AI, and advanced analytics initiatives.
