New Zealand's electricity market is more important than ever before. Rapidly evolving technologies, electrification of transport and industrial process heat, a move to 100% renewable in electricity generation, volatile climate, and a pandemic have highlighted like never before the critical role electricity plays in all our lives. These innovations and changes create opportunities but also put an unprecedented level of pressure on the system. The Electricity Authority is the regulator of the electricity sector. As the rule maker, its role is to provide a stable regulatory regime for a dynamic system which has and will continue to face significant change. Ensuring regulations are fit for purpose, and enforcing compliance with those regulations is key to ensuring the best outcomes are delivered for all New Zealanders for years to come.
In this session you will hear from Todd Gillies, Senior Business Intelligence Analyst at the Electricity Authority. Todd has created Tableau dashboards covering many aspects of the New Zealand electricity market. You will see examples of how dashboards have helped the Authority's Compliance team access the information they need to monitor and enforce compliance with the Electricity Industry Participation Code (the rules) and how Tableau has provided an accessible, responsive and reliable way to use data that has led to many organisational improvements.
