a retail electric provider (REP) serving residential and
business customers in the State of Texas, went live with
SoftSmiths on-demand Software-as-a-Services (SaaS)
forecasting application, SoftSmiths ERCOT Forecaster.
The service enables REPs to
automatically download and present ERCOT Forecast and

moment the ERCOT electric provider sees what SoftSmiths
ERCOT Forecaster can do for them,” said Hugo Stappers,
Director of Sales and Marketing at SoftSmiths. “This is
an affordable and easy-to-use service providing energy
forecasters the information they need at their
finger-tips in an automated fashion”.
