Our take

As energy sources diversify, via both electrification and a shift to renewables, it is vital that the infrastructure to support a more decentralised supply is built. GridX, founded in 2016, develops platforms for connecting, controlling, and optimising these decentralised energy resources, in order to facilitate the evolution of the grid.

The energy revolution is fuelled by the quickening adoption of electric vehicles, combined with “prosumer” behaviour, where consumers are producing their own energy via means such as solar panels and wind turbines. GridX supplies these “prosumers” with the tools to manage their home energy systems, for example by providing the data they need to be able to charge their EVs when their solar panels are producing an abundance, as well as providing businesses with solutions such as dynamic charging of their EVs to optimise energy usage.

GridX has experienced impressive growth in light of the shifts in energy consumer behaviour. The company has been acquired by Eon, with which they have been closely involved since 2017, enabling it to accelerate operations. It has also entered into partnerships with ChargePoint, one of the largest infrastructure providers for EVs in Europe and North America, and Dutch solar company Soly, to further push towards it goal to be a major facilitator for the energy transition.
