Optimizing O&M Costs:

Using Satellite Vegetation Intelligence to Deliver Member Savings

When Sho-Me Power Electric Cooperative’s Josh Holland was tasked with digitizing his team’s vegetation management workflow and managing an ambitious and expensive side-trimming project, he turned to satellites and artificial intelligence to maximize his side trimming and hot spot budgets across 1,800 transmission miles. He discovered a 13x return on investment, including savings on contractor bidding and seamless integrations into existing workflows.

In this session, we’ll cover how operations teams like Sho-Me’s can optimize today’s processes and budget for tomorrow’s increasing vegetation challenges.
