Improving Digital Experience for Business Customers
Business customers, like residential ones, expect seamless self-service options from utilities – bill payments, service management, usage tracking, and outage updates. However, business customers also need specialized resources, such as renewable energy programs, commercial EE programs and rebates, EV fleet support, property management/landlord services, construction project management, and industry-specific insights. This panel will explore how utilities can better understand and meet these unique needs through digital solutions. Panelists will discuss the latest technologies that enhance business customer experiences, helping them access critical information, complete transactions, and make informed decisions. Attendees will learn how a well-executed digital experience (DX) strategy can strengthen customer relationships and drive engagement in an increasingly digital world.
