NODES AS and ElectrifiedGrid\u2122 are excited to announce a strategic partnership that will enable grid operators and energy system stakeholders to better forecast, manage, and prepare the grid for the growing complexities of electrification and renewable energy integration.

As electricity demand continues to accelerate \u2013 driven by technology adoption, net-zero policies, and macroeconomic shifts \u2013 and renewable generation surpasses 40% of global electricity supply\u00b9, utilities and grid planners face unprecedented operational and planning challenges. Beyond balancing surging demand with evolving supply dynamics, system operators must also prepare tomorrow\u2019s infrastructure, ensuring today\u2019s investments are positioned to capture future economic and energy transition opportunities while mitigating potential grid congestion risks<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

ElectrifiedGrid\u2122 is a strategic grid planning platform that forecasts energy demand across a range of future scenarios, simulates 8,760-hour load profiles at the system- and asset-level to pinpoint congestion, and evaluates wires and non-wires solutions, including flexibility, to accelerate the development of rate case applications and capital investment plans. Enabled by advanced energy modelling and a digital twin, utilities and energy stakeholders can build a unified, evidence-based understanding of medium- to long-term grid needs to inform where, when and how to optimally deploy and invest in solutions like flexibility markets, managed charging, and infrastructure upgrades.<\/p>\n<\/div>

NODES\u2122 is a Norwegian technology company that is paving the way for a more sustainable future. NODES\u2122 Platform is helping speed up the energy transition by unlocking the value of flexibility within the electricity network. NODES\u2122 Platform provides Flexibility Service Providers (FSPs) with the ability to enroll Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) into flexibility markets, review opportunities to offer flexibility to System Operators (SOs), and submit bids and offers. By connecting these two solutions through standard integrations, system operators will be able to access a wide variety of flexibility on the NODES\u2122 Platform, unlocking an entirely new set of non-wires alternatives options for grid management.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
