Report from the future: What Entergy has learned after 6 years of optimizing their vegetation management program with satellites and AI.
Entergy was the first utility to use satellites and AI to optimize their vegetation management program at scale. In this session, you’ll glean actionable insights from Entergy’s six-year journey moving from a strict time-based trim cycle to one optimized by satellite inspections and AI-powered recommendations.
You’ll get specific examples of how Entergy improved reliability and increased agility. Despite rising vegetation management costs, they prevented reliability from suffering drastically. Learn how they’ve used vegetation condition and criticality scores to prioritize circuits and trim the right ones at the right times. Additionally, by creating OpEx efficiencies, they’ve been able to reprioritize based on changing environmental conditions, such as wildfire risk
