Asset investment planning software

Published:  27 July, 2020

Finnish multi-utility Alva is the first in Scandinavia to trial OVARRO’S PIONEER asset investment planning (AIP) software. The six-month trial, which started in May focuses on Alva’s water distribution network, but will also assess the potential benefits of optimal investment planning right across its asset base.

Alva serves the city of Jyväskylä in central Finland and its surrounding area and, along with its subsidiaries, generates and distributes electricity and produces, sells and distributes heat and water in the networks they own. PIONEER is a web-based decision support platform that can optimise asset management planning and operational strategies.

Kimmo Järvinen, head of Alva’s asset management programme said, “As a frontrunner in utility asset management in Nordic countries, Alva is excited by this proof of concept.”
