FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Airtricity Deploys Peace
8 for Green Electricity Customers in Ireland
London, 9 June 2006 – Leading renewable energy
company Airtricity has deployed Peace Software’s PeaceTM 8
Customer Information System (CIS) for billing and managing its 45,000
commercial customers in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Airtricity has fast grown to become the largest independent electricity
retailer in Ireland. To support its continuing success Airtricity
required an advanced and scalable billing system that could automate
the customer life cycle and reduce the cost to serve.
Previously Airtricity operated an IS/Customer system which was
unable to scale to match Airtricity’s growth. The implementation
team converted Airtricity customers from the premise-centric IS/Customer
system and its various supplementary data sources to the customer-centric
Peace 8 application.
Mark Ennis, Chief Executive Officer, Airtricity Supply, said: “Moving
to Peace 8 has provided further back office automation and enabled
us to consolidate our customer records in a single database to maintain
our low cost to serve business model for competitive advantage.”
Peace 8 automates the entire customer life cycle, from signing
up new customers, managing market transactions, billing customers,
and delivering Internet self-service to consumers.
Sebastian J. Gunningham, Peace Software Chief Executive Officer,
said: “Peace 8 is a top-rated utility billing system and Airtricity
has now proven its value for multi-market operations in European
countries.”
