If you use IBM Envizi for utility bill analytics and sustainability reporting, Nectar can complement and simplify your day-to-day utility data operations.

How Envizi workflows are usually organized

Public Envizi documentation highlights:
  • Hierarchy-based data navigation across groups, locations, and accounts
  • Utility bill analytics for cost and consumption
  • Meter and virtual-meter concepts for utility data tracking
Teams often want a faster operational layer for intake, issue resolution, and recurring exports.
