ENHANCE GRID RESILIENCY

Know What Is Happening on Your Grid and Fix It Before It Becomes a Problem

Talk to an Expert
55% of transformers are approaching end-of-life. EV sales have increased 7X. EVs, solar, batteries, and heat pumps are reshaping load in real time. Most utilities are planning a grid that won’t exist soon. Bidgely gives your grid planning, operations, and engineering teams appliance-level intelligence behind every household meter, across all 8,760 hours of the year, so they can see what’s actually going on across your system.

JOBS TO BE DONE

Grid outcomes you can actually own.

Know the true capacity of every asset on your system.

Go beyond nameplate ratings and billing data to understand real load composition by feeder, substation, and transformer using appliance-level signals from AMI. Bidgely ties disaggregated load to each grid asset.

Plan for the DERs you cannot see yet.

Score every premise for solar, storage, EV, and heat pump propensity so your long-range forecasts reflect what is actually coming, not what already appeared on an interconnection or rebate application.

Find Non-Wires Alternatives (NWAs) before you break ground.

20+ U.S. states now require NWA evaluation before approving capital upgrades. Bidgely identifies demand-side and DER-based solutions to capacity constraints, saving utilities up to $6M annually from deferred capital investment, before you commit to infrastructure spend.

grid-planning-icon-4-color

Defend your filings with data.

Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) filings are under more scrutiny than ever, with PUCs rejecting infrastructure plans built on aggregate assumptions. Support interconnection analysis and NWA filings with premises-level load evidence that holds up to regulatory scrutiny, built from actual appliance inventory on the circuit, not regional averages.

USE CASES

What UtilityAI makes possible in grid resiliency.

Each use case uses the same appliance-level intelligence layer so your grid planning, operations, and regulatory teams operate from the same source of truth.

Grid Asset Capacity Analysis

See what is actually stressing your grid assets, not just what your billing and grid systems suggest.

Transformer and feeder capacity assessments built on whole-home averages miss the EV charger on Elm Street and the heat pump cluster on the south feeder. Bidgely identifies appliance-level load composition at every premises and aggregates it up to the asset level so your capacity analysis reflects what is genuinely on the wire.
  • 90%+ DER detection accuracy at the premises level
  • 40 million meters serve as sources for Bidgely's data models
  • 10K+ of EVs discovered by multiple utilities on their grids

Long-Term DER Forecasting and Planning

Stop forecasting with yesterday's data.

Long-range planning models built on historical billing data and interconnection queues systematically undercount behind-the-meter DER adoption. Bidgely starts from actual meter-level consumption, scoring every premise for solar, storage, EV, and heat pump propensity and projecting adoption by ZIP, feeder, and substation with the hourly granularity regulators now require.
  • Granular 8760 forecasts replace static snapshots with dynamic representations of daily, weekly, and seasonal variability
  • Forecasts feed directly into industry-standard power flow tools like CYME and Synergi

Non-Wires Alternatives

Find the demand-side flexibility before you approve the asset upgrade project.

When a feeder constraint appears, the default response doesn't have to be new infrastructure. Bidgely identifies the load driving that constraint, ranks customers by flexibility value per transformer, and quantifies NWA potential modeled on actual appliance-level load shift potential, not estimates.
  • NWA analysis reduced from weeks to hours per asset
  • 30–50% of assessed assets have a viable NWA alternative
  • 80% reduction in peak EV demand at a constrained transformer through NWA instead of upgrade
  • $2–3M from transformer overload prevention

AGENTIC AUTOMATION IN GRID RESILIENCY

AI that acts. Not just advises.

Bidgely’s agentic layer handles the grid monitoring and planning workflows your team currently does manually, without adding headcount.

Agentic Value, Modeled
$6M+/year

From deferred capital investment and transformer overload prevention. Planning cycles reduced from weeks to hours per constrained asset.

Transformer Loading Monitoring Agent

Monitors load at the substation, feeder, and transformer levels using appliance-level signals. Each alert is calibrated against that asset’s own baseline, not a territory average. Surfaces specific load drivers, such as EV growth, heat pump cold-start peaks, and HVAC degradation.

DER Forecasting and Scenario Agent

Runs continuous DER adoption projections by circuit, substation, and planning zone based on live propensity scores. Test multiple future scenarios, such as population growth, climate shifts, EV adoption, DER growth, DSM programs—starting from actual meter-level consumption, not generic load shapes.

Non-Wires Alternatives Recommendation Agent

Runs the entire NWA workflow autonomously, from constraint identification to scenario analysis to ranked recommendation. Produces defensible plans committees can act on without rebuilding from scratch. Generates appliance-level 8760 load curves before and after implementation. Delivers candidate packages including eligible customers, program options, and projected capacity relief.

GENAI IN GRID RESILIENCY

Plain-language answers to complex grid questions.

Bidgely’s GenAI layer gives grid planning, operations, and engineering teams a conversational interface to appliance-level data. Complete complex load research in minutes, not months.

Grid Planning Copilot

A GenAI assistant for planning and engineering teams. Ask about feeder loading, DER concentration, interconnection capacity, and NWA potential to get appliance-level answers without custom queries.

Outage and Anomaly Analyst

Enables operations teams to ask about outage root cause, load anomalies, and asset performance using plain language. Surfaces appliance-level contributors to grid events so your team diagnoses faster and responds with precision.

Interconnection Analysis Assistant

Generates plain-language summaries of current-state DER load and hosting capacity for specific circuits and substations, supporting interconnection reviews and regulatory submissions with evidence grounded in AMI data.

PROVEN RESULTS

Deployed at scale. Measured at the meter.

Heating identified as 41.45% of usage, 6.83 MWh/yr premium in electric-heating homes, 303.94 MWh forecast load growth. NWA design for remote diesel grid. 

~1,500 EVs mapped with feeder-level visibility, continuous new use cases generated from AMI data without additional hardware.
