Data Hive offers customers a selection of over 40, and counting, solution provider companiesthat are registered for data sharing. Solution provider companies can utilize Data Hive to easily request authorization from customers—simplifying clean-energy projects such as adding solar, EV, or energy storage, for both the customer and the solution provider. Data Hive, powered by UtilityAPI’s energy data exchange platform, leverages the Green Button Connect standard and follows the DataGuard Energy Data Privacyprogram guidelines.
