Arcadia Platform
What it is
Arcadia Platform is a web and API energy intelligence platform for businesses managing utility costs, energy use, and sustainability work. Its Plug product gathers utility bills, emissions information, and interval readings from electricity, water, and waste providers. Arcadia describes coverage across thousands of providers in more than 90 countries, with electricity readings available at 15-, 30-, and 60-minute intervals. Data can be collected historically or on an ongoing basis, with scheduled or on-demand delivery. The Plug REST API connects to providers, retrieves usage data, and organizes it by site. Signal models electricity costs across portfolios from tariff structures and usage data, with calculations available through APIs. The platform also supports solar and storage analysis, energy forecasting, carbon tracking, tariff audits, and project forecasting. Sustainability reporting integrates with Salesforce Net Zero Cloud, Watershed, Sweep, and other platforms. Arcadia positions the platform for finance, procurement, operations, energy management, and sustainability teams at large enterprises. Pricing is available on request.
