Bidgely, a California-based home energy monitoring and management solution company, had received interest from Japan but needed Intralink to provide a local physical presence to drive forward existing discussions.
We took up discussions with the top 3 Japanese utilities (eventually adding 5 more to the list of targets) and secured a POC with Chubu Electric Power.
In late 2017, based on the advanced stage of discussions with key customers, Bidgely invested in Japan and established its own local subsidiary. In January, 2020, we were excited to see the official announcement of Bidgely’s full commercial deployment with TEPCO EP.
