Electricity
Hardware and software solutions for electricity built on Cloud- and AI-native platforms.
Transform your operations
Our Cloud- and AI-native platforms deliver improved grid performance, reduce operating costs and empower consumers to become full participants in the future of electricity.
Creating a monitoring and control platform that extends from the operations center to the grid-edge allows utilities to deploy at the speed of value, generating greater value over time and avoiding the pitfalls of proprietary systems from legacy providers.
Maximizing the grid
Built on open standards and designed for interoperability, our solutions deliver modern best-in-class performance without risk of vendor lock-in or early obsolescence.
Intelligence in the Meter
Advanced AMI 2.0 and Grid Edge technologies transform the grid, enabling visibility into grid conditions, outages and restoration management, power quality and more. These advanced technologies push intelligence to the edge, allowing real-time monitoring and calculations that allow you to deliver the highest quality service at the lowest cost.
Products include Grid Edge network cards supporting public and private networking options, together with embedded compute that pushes advanced AI and analytics to the grid’s edge.
- Faster outage detection and restoration through real-time visibility at the grid edge
- SLA-based operations & support
- Improved power quality monitoring, with issues pinpointed before customers are affected
- Lower operating costs by pushing intelligence and analytics to the meter rather than the back office
- Network flexibility, with public and private connectivity options to suit each deployment
- Future-proof, upgradable edge compute that supports new applications as needs evolve
- No vendor lock-in: open, standards-based hardware that interoperates across the ecosystem
Cloud Data & AI Platform
All your meter and grid data flows into a cloud-native platform that collects, validates and makes sense of billions of reads. This is unlocking an ecosystem of applications from time-sensitive billing structures to pin-pointing issues in service quality. CrescoNet’s platform is built for the volumes that AMI 2.0 demands and designed to deliver.
Products include open, vendor-agnostic meter head end and AMI applications, together with Meter Data Management.
- Scalable handling of billions of meter-reads per day without bespoke infrastructure
- Cleaner, validated data that improves billing accuracy and reduces revenue leakage
- AI and machine learning applied across the full data set to surface insights human analysts would miss
- A single platform supporting time-of-use, dynamic pricing and other advanced tariff structures
- Faster identification of service-quality issues, non-technical losses and meter tampering
- Open APIs that let utilities integrate their applications without re-platforming
- Our solution is proven at integrating with a range of legacy meter platforms which provides for smooth transition from AMI 1.0 and time to deploy our modern platform
Empowering the consumer
Every home and business now has the ability to connect solar, batteries, EVs, hot water and load control to the grid through the meter – and that meter needs intelligence, control and a data platform to make it all work.
Grid-Edge Control & DER Management
AMI 2.0 means the meter itself can control solar export, manage electric vehicle charging, orchestrate battery dispatch and monitor power quality in real time. CrescoNet’s deX edge platform runs these applications directly at the meter.
It’s proven at scale across more than three million devices, turning every connection point into an active node in the energy transition. The result is a flexible, programmable grid-edge that helps utilities manage distributed energy resources, respond to network constraints and offer new services to customers, all without ripping and replacing existing systems.
Products include the deX edge applications platform, distributed energy resource management, demand response and load control of multiple devices, like electric vehicle charging, hot water or solar and behind-the-meter generation and storage orchestration. All data delivered on open standard-based technologies.
- Unlock distributed energy resources at scale — solar, batteries and EVs become controllable assets that support grid stability
- Defer or avoid costly network upgrades by managing constraints at the edge rather than reinforcing the wires
- Open new revenue streams through demand response, dynamic export limits and value-stacked DER services
- Improve customer satisfaction by giving prosumers visibility, control and fair compensation for their flexibility
- Manage growing EV charging loads without overloading local transformers or low-voltage networks
- Run advanced applications on existing meters, protecting prior AMI investment and avoiding rip-and-replace
- Standard-based interoperability that keeps DER, EV and storage vendor choices open as the market evolves
Your electricity solution as a managed service
Open and standards-based technologies are at the core of our offering. But for utilities implementing large and complex systems, that can still leave a gap.
That’s why we built Gridwide – it wraps the technologies developed by CrescoNet and its partners into a turn-key service offering. Gridwide reduces technological and operational risk and lets utilities capture the value of their AMI investment without having to build and run the platform themselves.
Partner with us
AMI 2.0 doesn’t have to be a leap into the unknown. Partner with us for a safe, efficient transition, expanded capabilities, and lifecycle support you can count on for years to come.
