FortisBC Selects Copperleaf For Asset Investment Planning
Vancouver, BC, March 21, 2017—FortisBC has selected the Copperleaf Decision Analytics Solution to standardize its asset management capital planning practices. FortisBC owns and operates approximately 48,200 kilometers of natural gas transmission and distribution pipelines and approximately 7,200 kilometers of transmission and distribution power lines throughout the province of British Columbia.
