Problem
Many commercial, municipal, and industrial sites in California rely on centralized power grids that are vulnerable to outages, high demand charges, and limited integration of renewable energy and electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. This creates challenges in achieving energy resilience, cost efficiency, and compliance with emerging grid services requirements.
Solution
Gridscape designs, builds, and operates modular renewable microgrids that can be sized from 75 kWh to 10 MWh and are manufactured in‑house for seamless hardware‑software integration. Its cloud‑based EnergyScope platform applies AI/ML to forecast generation, manage loads, and optimize the dispatch of distributed energy resources (DERs) for both on‑grid and off‑grid operation. The system enables rapid deployment of thousands of microgrids, providing reliable power, demand‑charge reduction, and the ability to participate in virtual power plant (VPP) markets. Integrated EV charging solutions and OCPP‑compatible cloud servers allow fleets and public chargers to draw locally generated renewable energy while supporting grid services such as demand response and peak shifting. Customers receive a unified dashboard for real‑time monitoring, remote diagnostics, and automated load shedding, ensuring resilient and cost‑effective energy supply.
Target Audience
Primary customers are commercial and industrial facilities, municipal agencies, and fleet operators in California seeking resilient, renewable power and integrated EV charging solutions.
