London, ON – At the recent Green Button Alliance Annual General Meeting (AGM), London Hydro was honoured for ten years of innovation and leadership in advancing Green Button technology. This recognition underscores the utility's commitment to providing customers with secure, real-time access to their energy data while driving industry-wide progress.

Green Button, a standardized energy data-sharing initiative, allows customers to securely access and share their electricity usage data. More details on the Green Button initiative can be found on the official website: www.greenbuttonalliance.org.

London Hydro has been at the forefront of Green Button implementation, being one of the first utilities in Canada to offer Green Button Download My Data (DMD) and Connect My Data (CMD) to customers. Through these tools, users can:

  • Access Your Data: Customers can download their electricity usage data in real-time, daily, or monthly intervals.
  • Connect with Third-Party Apps: With Green Button Connect My Data, customers can securely share their energy usage with third-party applications for analysis, energy management, and cost savings.
  • Gain Personalized Energy Insights: Homeowners and businesses can make smarter energy choices and potentially reduce costs.

London Hydro’s continued investment in Green Button technology offers significant benefits including:

  • Better Energy Management – Customers can understand when and how they use electricity.
  • Potential Cost Savings – Users can adjust their habits or switch to a rate plan that better meets their needs.
  • Sustainability & Efficiency – The technology supports smart home integration and renewable energy solutions.

“Investing in the future needs of Londoners is a key priority of London Hydro,” says CEO Ysni Semsedini. “Our ability to share this technology with other providers showcases our leadership in the province and country.”

As a leading utility in Ontario, London Hydro continues to seek opportunities to develop new technologies and solutions that benefit both London residents and the broader hydro sector. This leadership fosters job creation and revenue opportunities for the organization while positioning London Hydro as a pioneer in energy data management.
