GridIQ is building the next generation of grid intelligence for critical infrastructure, starting with wildfire prevention and distribution-level visibility. Today’s electrical grid operates with limited real-time awareness at the edge, where faults occur, outages begin, and wildfires ignite, forcing operators to react after failure using incomplete data. GridIQ addresses this gap with advanced sensing and analytics technology that enables continuous monitoring of distribution networks and delivers high-resolution, real-time insights to support faster, more informed decision-making. Designed for high-risk environments such as wildfire-prone regions, critical infrastructure, and microgrids, our platform integrates with existing systems to improve reliability, reduce risk, and modernize grid operations. We are building a more resilient, intelligent, and proactive energy infrastructure to help protect communities and support the future of electrification.
