MVWeb scraping

Automatically downloads MVWeb data and populates a database.

Our system automates the complex and time consuming MVWeb data acquisition process so that any user or retailer may benefit from it's use. Once the user enters a list of MVWeb sites, IDs, and passwords, and tells the system how frequently to download data and where to store it, the system takes over keeping your interval data up to date. If the MVWeb site is down or slow because of heavy use, the system keeps trying until the data is acquired.

Uses:
  • Load shape aggregation for wholesale pricing

Standard load shapes

Portfolio of over 80 standard load shapes based on business types (SIC codes). (Michigan only).

This product allows conversion of monthly utility billing data to hourly load shapes using load profiles that are more business specific than utility standard shapes. A key feature of our load shape package, is a “rosetta” stone that relates most 4 digit SIC Codes to one of the 80 load shapes. This is particularly valuable in the non-manufacturing arena, where there are thousands of SIC Codes but 24 load shapes.
