GridData GmbH

Our digital platform, the GridData DigitalTwin, transforms the way energy distribution systems are managed so they are fit for a world where electricity and heat are produced, used, and stored like never before.


Our digital twin reflects the real grid. Built on live distribution grid data, not assumptions. So you can validate changes before you commit.


You don’t need to wait for perfect data. Your grid data will never be complete. And it will never stand still. Our system works with what you have today and gets smarter as more becomes available.


Grow your distribution grid with confidence. We show you exactly where to reinforce and by how much, backing every decision with solid evidence.


Get more from your grid. Reduce losses. Maximise existing infrastructure. Defer capital spend and cut carbon as a direct result.


A proven platform. Shaped by a decade of real-world grid experience. Backed by 15 years of patented technology. Trusted, tested and secure across hundreds of live distribution grids.
