GridCARE, National Grid collaborate to unlock grid capacity for infrastructure

GridCARE and National Grid (NGG) announced a collaboration that aims to more quickly connect large-load customers to the power grid while reducing costs for new infrastructure. GridCARE’s platform uses Generative AI models to evaluate quadrillions of grid operating scenarios – precisely identifying the rare conditions and hours when the grid might become constrained. The platform then identifies operational strategies, including flexibility solutions such as batteries and distributed energy assets, to overcome those constraints, safely delivering additional capacity from infrastructure already in place.
