Gridware

Gridware builds and operates an intelligent grid monitoring system that combines rugged hardware and cloud-based analytics to deliver real-time situational awareness for utilities. Its flagship Gridscope device mounts directly to utility poles and uses mechanical sensors, on-device computing, and multi-modal communication (cellular, satellite, mesh) to detect faults, equipment stress, and wildfire risks—even on de-energized lines. Data from thousands of sensors flows into Gridware’s Active Grid Response (AGR) platform, which enables proactive maintenance, faster outage response, and real-time alerts across distributed energy infrastructure. The system is designed to scale across diverse geographies and grid topologies, enhancing visibility and resilience in the face of storms, aging infrastructure, and climate-related threats.

Utilities deploy Gridscope hardware across their networks—either through capital purchase or leasing arrangements—and subscribe to the AGR platform for ongoing monitoring, analytics, and support. The subscription includes real-time event detection, software updates, and predictive tools that help utilities pinpoint fault locations, reduce patrol times, and prevent wildfires. This structure allows utilities to modernize their grid operations without a heavy upfront investment, while benefiting from a continuously evolving service layer that enhances safety and efficiency.
