Where it falls short

  • Limited public information on platform specifications and technical architecture since becoming part of Enel X's broader offerings
  • Focus on commercial and industrial customers means less functionality for residential utility programs
  • Steep cost of implementation and training for utility companies transitioning from legacy systems
