Ben Energy ^Company

BEN Energy offers a software solution that combines data analytics and behavioral psychology to engage utility companies with residential clients. It is designed to enable utility companies to deliver regulatory required energy savings and customer insights. The software uses a small set of initial customer data from utility companies and adds insights to them from all users across its platforms. Its self-learning algorithms then derive personalized, behavioral energy feedback to each customer through its web, mobile, and emailing products. Along with that feedback, the software provides specific recommendations to improve energy efficiency and nudges users to engage in certain actions or invest into a specific efficiency-product or service. The company works with over 25 energy providers in Switzerland and Germany. BEN Energy was founded in 2011 and is based in Zurich, Switzerland.
