Revolutionizing the way you think about energy.
GridPoint SmartGrid Platform™ is the first intelligent clean tech solution that aligns the interests of electric utilities, consumers and the environment. GridPoint’s platform offers utilities direct control of an intelligent network that integrates energy storage technologies, load measurement and control devices and renewable energy sources at the edge of the grid.
GridPoint SmartGrid Platform enables utilities to reshape the load duration curve by deploying stored power during peak periods, reducing customers’ non-essential loads, optimizing existing base-load generation assets and relieving stress on transmission and distribution (T&D) lines. For consumers, GridPoint’s platform provides protection from power outages, increases energy efficiency and integrates utility controlled renewable energy, paving the way for the commercial success of solar and wind energy sources.
The distributed and clean nature of GridPoint SmartGrid Platform allows utilities to rapidly scale their peak power needs while avoiding regulatory and environmental hurdles associated with building new power plants. The platform also enables utilities to dispatch cost-effective power during peak periods and store energy during off-peak periods.
Additionally, unlike most demand response solutions, GridPoint SmartGrid Platform places control in the hands of utilities and offers unparalleled load measurement, control and verification at the circuit level.
The result is an innovative solution to cost-effectively and efficiently manage peak periods, shape generation, increase grid reliability and optimize existing generation, transmission and distribution assets. This optimization reduces carbon emissions and criteria pollutants affecting public health, while conserving fuel, capital and land resources.
By embracing GridPoint SmartGrid Platform, utilities can achieve business objectives while assuming a leadership role in environmental stewardship. Additionally, GridPoint SmartGrid Platform enables utilities to increase customer loyalty through value-added services including clean backup power, energy conservation and renewable energy integration.
GridPoint, in partnership with the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Cogentrix Energy, Inc., a leading independent power producer, offers a comprehensive program including economic analysis and financing, project management, installation, marketing, maintenance and customer support.
