Problem
Energy producers, industrial consumers, and storage operators often lack the tools to aggregate and monetize the flexibility of their distributed assets in real time, leading to missed revenue, higher operating costs, and limited contribution to grid stability.
Solution
GridBeyond provides an AI‑driven software platform—GridBeyond Point—that connects generation, storage, and load assets to electricity markets and demand‑side‑response programmes. The system ingests data from over 70 sources, including asset telemetry, market prices, grid frequency, and weather forecasts, and applies machine‑learning models to identify the most profitable dispatch actions. It automates control of assets while respecting operational constraints, and can be deployed with existing hardware or GridBeyond’s TouchPoint controllers. Users access real‑time performance, revenue, and optimization insights through the ViewPoint portal, which offers role‑specific dashboards for finance, operations, and energy managers. A 24/7 Network Operations Centre monitors grid events and provides virtual energy‑manager support, ensuring reliability and compliance.
Target Audience
Primary customers are owners and operators of distributed energy resources—such as renewable generators, battery storage facilities, and large‑scale industrial or commercial loads—who seek to monetize flexibility and improve energy efficiency.
